CA 2421964

A biopsy system for retrieving biopsy tissue samples from different regions of the body is disclosed. The biopsy system includes a single use loading unit having a trocar assembly and a knife assembly. A trocar driver is operable connected to the trocar assembly and is actuable to move a trocar between retracted and advanced positions. The trocar driver is disengaged from the trocar assembly prior to firing the trocar into a target tissue mass to reduce drag on the trocar during firing. A knife driver is operably connected to the knife assembly such that when actuated, a knife is both rotatably and axially advanced about the trocar.

L'invention concerne un système de biopsie permettant de prélever des échantillons de tissu de biopsie provenant de différentes régions du corps. Ledit systeme de biopsie comprend une unité de charge à usage unique doté d'un ensemble trocart et d'un ensemble couteau. Un dispositif de commande de trocart est connecté de manière fonctionnelle à l'ensemble trocart, et peut être actionné de façon à faire passer le trocart d'une position rétractée à des positions avancées. Ledit dispositif de commande de trocart est dégagé de l'ensemble trocart avant le déclenchement d'un mécanisme d'activation permettant de faire avancer ledit trocart dans une masse de tissu cible, afin de réduire son frottement sur le trocart pendant ladite activation. Un dispositif de commande de couteau est relié de manière fonctionnelle à l'ensemble couteau de sorte que lorsqu'on l'actionne, ledit couteau tourne et avance axialement autour du trocart.
