ABSTRACT:
A biopsy forceps device includes a handle assembly having a handle portion and a hub portion. An elongated flexible hollow body portion preferably in the form of a coiled spring guide wire extends from the hub portion to a forceps assembly. A control wire extends through a lumen in the guide wire as well as a lumen in the hub portion and is coupled at one end to the handle portion and at the other end to the forceps assembly. A flexible coupling interconnects the hub portion with the handle portion so that the hub portion may be angularly displaced with respect to the distal end of the handle portion.
