Abstract

A new liver biopsy instrument taking the form of a suction biopsy syringe with two pistons and a Menghini needle, is described. A vacuum is first created, and the whole procedure is effected by a continuous uninterrupted movement into the liver and instantaneous withdrawal. The syringe is held in one hand. The procedure is very simple and requires minimal training. A total of 118 biopsies have been performed. The specimens were suitable for histopathological examination. Pain was minimal and there were no complications.
