Colclough Punch up 5mm, 15cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled circular excision of small tissue cores, the 5 mm aperture is sized for targeted mucosal biopsies and removal of small polyps or nodules. The upward-facing cup orientation facilitates access in confined or angled operative corridors—commonly encountered in ENT, oral/maxillofacial, dermatologic and minor soft-tissue procedures—where a precise, minimal-volume specimen is required. The 15 cm overall length provides reach into deeper cavities while preserving tactile control for delicate dissections.

Design & Configuration

The upward-facing punch cup creates a shearing action that produces a defined circular specimen with minimal peripheral trauma. A 5 mm diameter balances the need for adequate diagnostic tissue against minimizing donor-site trauma. The 15 cm shaft length offers a compromise between reach and handling ergonomics, helping the operator maintain visibility and fine control in narrow spaces. The punch geometry is intended to deliver consistent core samples useful for histology or to excise small lesions cleanly.
