EN – TF17 – Procedure 

  • Approach the biopsy forceps near to the tissue (lesion) to be taken from the patient’s body. 
  • Open the cups by pushing the plastic spool at the handle. 
  • Place the forceps on the tissue and take the sample gently by pulling back the plastic spool (this manipulation will close the forceps cups). 
  • Keep the forceps cups closed and remove biopsy forceps out of the endoscope carefully. 
  • This tissue specimen taken will be ready for further histological examination.
