According to such a configuration, the same operation and effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained, and as shown in FIG. 4, the opening 9 is narrowed down while maintaining an elliptical shape (or a concave shape). Therefore, damage to the resected tissue is reduced.
That is, in the configuration of the conventional example shown in FIG. 7, as shown in FIG. 7B, the suction hole (opening) 109 is formed in a semicircular shape and narrowed, so that the outer blade 113 and the inner blade 114 are formed. Thus, there is a problem that the tissue is compressed and damaged before the tissue is excised, which hinders pathological diagnosis after collection.
However, in the suction biopsy device of the present embodiment, since the opening 9 is narrowed while maintaining the elliptical shape, damage to the resected tissue is reduced.

FIGS. 5 and 6 show a third embodiment of the present invention. In the suction biopsy device of the present embodiment, the side hole 8 formed in the cutter member 6 has a distal end surface 8a and a proximal end surface 8b formed by cutting out the cutter member 6 in the radial direction. ing. And the distal end face 8a
Is formed in a V-shape by being cut out so as to be inclined with respect to the central axis of the cutter member 6. In other words, the distal end surface 8a is formed as the inner blade 14 such that the V-shaped top portion becomes the protruding portion 26. Since the other configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals are given and the description is omitted.

According to such a configuration, the same operation and effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained, and as shown in FIG. 6, the operating member 10 is operated to move the cutter member 6 to the hand side. When the opening 9 is squeezed by sliding, the tissue is sandwiched between the outer blade 13 and the projecting portion 26, and the projecting portion 26 bites into the tissue. Therefore, the tissue does not slide on the inner blade 14 in the process of squeezing the opening 9 and is not pushed out, so that a large tissue specimen can be excised. That is, in the configuration of the conventional example shown in FIG. 7, as shown in FIG. 7C, the tissue is sucked through the suction hole (opening) 109 (indicated by a broken line in the drawing) and the cutter is cut. When the member 106 is moved and the suction hole (opening) 109 is narrowed,
There is a problem that the tissue surface slides on the inner blade 114 and is pushed out of the opening 109 (indicated by a solid line in the figure), so that a sufficient amount of tissue cannot be cut off. However, in the suction biopsy device of the present embodiment, the protrusion 2
Such a problem does not occur because 6 penetrates the tissue.
