Clinical Application
Designed for targeted punch biopsy of mucosal and superficial soft-tissue lesions in confined anatomical spaces. Commonly used during endoscopic procedures where a compact bite is required to sample suspicious tissue while minimizing collateral trauma—for example, transendoscopic sampling of bladder, laryngeal, nasal, or airway mucosa, and other confined-site biopsies.
Design & Configuration
The punch/cup-style jaw geometry produces a controlled shearing action that cleanly excises small tissue cores and retains the specimen within the cup for secure retrieval. The compact 3 x 9.5 mm jaw footprint supports precise sampling of focal lesions and reduces the risk of excessive tissue removal in delicate areas. The overall profile is intended to pass through or be used alongside endoscopic working channels and in narrow operative fields where access and visualization are limited.
