ABSTRACT:
An improved biopsy shaver for removing cutaneous specimens from the surface of the skin comprising a thin flexible blade, a thin flexible plastic body, a pair of angled flaps, a measuring ruler, and a plurality of raised ridges attached to the angled flaps. The angled flaps are positioned in a upward fashion to assure that the blade will be bent in a downward fashion when the angled flaps are squeezed together. A plurality of raised ridges are provided that will allow the practitioner to have a firm hold on the angled flaps when performing a biopsy. An additional measuring ruler is provided to allow the practitioner to measure cutaneous specimens prior to removal.
