ABSTRACT:
A plastic disposable scissor-action biopsy or grasping tool handle has a standard adapter tube attached to a front arm of the handle. An actuator rod attaches to the handle with the standard biopsy tool driver cable attached to the actuator rod. An actuator rod front tubular portion is slidable within the front handle arm. The actuator rod back portion has an elongated horizontal slot therethrough with a stop pin through the slot attached to a pair of mating stop pin holes within an actuator rod receiving recess in the back arm of the handle. A spring interacts between an actuator rod spring stop and the rear handle arm to regulate bite pressure of the biopsy cutting tool. The back handle arm pushes the driver cable to operate the biopsy cutting tool.
