Yeoman Rectal Biopsy Specimen Fcps Fig.4 35cm

Clinical Application

Designed to obtain mucosal tissue specimens from the rectum and distal sigmoid colon, these specimen forceps are intended for use during diagnostic rectal biopsies performed through an anoscope, proctoscope, sigmoidoscope or transanal access. The cup-style jaws capture and retain small biopsy specimens for histopathology while minimizing crush artifact when used with appropriate technique.

Design & Configuration

The instrument's extended 35 cm shaft provides reach for transanal access and flexible positioning through common anorectal scopes. The Yeoman Fig. 4 designation identifies the manufacturer model geometry optimized for rectal sampling: a slender shaft for access combined with cup-style jaws that approximate to sever and hold mucosal tissue. This combination facilitates controlled tissue capture and retrieval without repeated insertions.
