Clinical Application
Designed for taking controlled tissue samples and performing small soft-tissue excisions under direct visualization, this cup-style biopsy forceps is commonly used for mucosal biopsies, targeted lesion sampling, and small polyp removal. The 3 x 8 mm bite provides a predictable specimen size useful for histopathology while minimizing collateral tissue trauma. Typical clinical settings include clinic‑based procedures, procedure rooms and operating theatres where direct access to the target tissue is available.
Design & Configuration
The instrument features cup/punch jaws sized at 3 x 8 mm to capture discrete tissue cores or fragments with a single bite. The compact cup geometry concentrates biting force for clean specimen retrieval and reduces tissue crush. A handheld, direct‑vision configuration gives the operator tactile feedback and fine control during sample acquisition—important for delicate mucosal surfaces and confined anatomic sites.
