CA 2181389

A biopsy needle assembly and kit for acquiring a sample of tissue and method of using the same. The biopsy needle assembly includes a needle having a lumen extending therethrough and a stylet sized to extend through the lumen. A divided ergonomically shaped handle has a distal part formed around the proximal end of the needle and a proximal part formed around the proximal end of the stylet. These parts can be locked together, but only from a single right angle initial orientation with a rotation in one direction only from there to lock the two parts together. A stop ensures locked alignment. Locking the handle parts in alignment provides a known orientation between the distal ends of the needle and stylet. A Luer connector attached to the proximal end of the distal handle part is exposed only when the handle parts are disconnected for connecting either a plug or aspiration apparatus.
