Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and method for performing painless bone marrow biopsy that requires only a single procedural pass to the biopsy bone site is disclosed. The biopsy device combines dermatotomy, anesthesia and marrow specimen extraction functionality and inherently aligns the bone drilling site with the site of anesthetic delivery by incorporating a transport channel that may be used for anesthetic delivery, into the biopsy needle used for bone access and bone marrow sample retrieval. The biopsy device also discloses a right angle drill interface and multiple side-access ports for aspiration and anesthetic syringe attachments. A novel syringe/plunger system comprising vacuum tube fitted plungers for quick transfer of marrow specimen sample without requiring a second non-sterile assistant is also disclosed.
