Colclough Punch up 3mm, 15cm

Clinical Application

This up-oriented 3 mm punch is intended for controlled removal of small-diameter cores of soft tissue where precision and a defined circular specimen are required. Common clinical uses include targeted dermatologic and mucosal biopsies, excision of small lesions, and procedures that require a compact, predictable cutting diameter in confined or angled working spaces.

Design & Configuration

The up-angulation directs the cutting edge toward the operator’s line of sight and facilitates access beneath overhangs or within shallow cavities where a straight punch would be difficult to position. The 3 mm cutting diameter provides a small, reproducible specimen size useful for histologic evaluation while minimizing adjacent tissue trauma. The 15 cm instrument length increases reach for working in deeper or less accessible sites without sacrificing tactile control.
