Cook G48240 Bigopsy Backloading Biopsy Forceps
Part # G48240 Exp 3/19
Cook G48240 Bigopsy Backloading Biopsy Forceps are used to obtain tissue samples for pathological evaluation. The 4 mm³ cup size provides a specimen larger than any other 3 Fr or smaller flexible ureteroscopic cup biopsy forceps on the market
The forcep is designed to obtain larger sample sizes for the pathological evaluation of tumors within the renal pelvis and ureters. The device may also be used for the retrieval of specimens or foreign objects from the urinary tract.
The 4 mm3 cup size provides a sample four times larger than samples from any other flexible ureteroscopic cup biopsy forceps on the market that are 3 Fr or smaller.
The BIGopsy forceps’ larger cup size increases the likelihood of obtaining a representative tissue sample for the
pathologist without costly repeated procedures.
Because of its superior cup size, the BIGopsy forceps have been designed to be backloaded through the working channel of a ureteroscope before being used in the patient.
Once the device has been backloaded, secure the removable, replaceable handle to the forceps. The device is then ready for operation.
In Perfect sealed condition but but past expiration date. Not for human use in the US.
Expiration dates have mostly to do with sterilization and not the integrity of the product. The manufacturers sterilize the products after they are packaged and it lasts so many years. The only products we caution customers about are ones that are absorbable or drug coated.
There is a $125 minimum order due to the cost of shipping.
