Why Talk About Endoscopic Biopsy Forceps?
如果您经营一家兽医诊所，您可能听说过兽医内窥镜仪器正在改变游戏规则。在这些仪器中，内窥镜活检钳作为必备配件脱颖而出——无论您是在调查狗的慢性胃肠问题，还是从一只吞下不该吞的东西的好奇雪貂身上提取样本。
从繁忙的城市诊所到乡村诊所，Reescope 已帮助亚太地区的兽医找到最适合他们的兽医诊断设备。今天，让我们深入了解内窥镜活检钳——它们是什么，为什么重要，以及如何为您的患者挑选最佳设备。
What Are Endoscopic Biopsy Forceps?
Simply put, endoscopic biopsy forceps are small, precision-engineered instruments designed to be passed through the working channel of a veterinary endoscope. They let you:
✅ 收集来自胃肠道、鼻腔或气道内部的微小组织样本（活检），无需侵入性手术。
✅ Retrieve small foreign bodies lodged in hard-to-reach places.
✅ Inspect or pinch test suspicious lesions to get rapid insights.
Because they’re used directly inside your patient’s body, the design, material quality, and tip type are critical—not only for successful sampling but for keeping pets safe.
Flexible vs Rigid Biopsy Forceps: Which Should You Choose?
一个我们经常收到的问题是：
“What’s the difference between flexible and rigid biopsy forceps, and which should I buy for my practice?”
Here’s a quick comparison table:
Feature | Flexible Biopsy Forceps | Rigid Biopsy Forceps |
Best for | GI, 支气管镜检查, 鼻腔 | 耳，鼻，关节镜检查 |
Manoeuvrability | High, can bend with scope | Limited, straight channels only |
Common in | Gastroskopen, colonoscopen | Otoscopes, arthroscopes |
Sample quality | 优秀的粘膜 | Good for superficial tissues |
对于大多数专注于宠物微创活检程序的小动物诊所来说，柔性钳是核心投资。然而，如果您的诊所经常进行耳镜检查或关节镜检查，则刚性选项是必不可少的。
关键特性要寻找
When selecting endoscopic biopsy forceps, consider these crucial aspects:
✅ 直径和工作长度
确保钳子适合您现有的兽医内窥镜品牌。典型的胃镜可能需要2.8mm的通道，而用于异宠的小型内窥镜可能只需要1.2mm。
✅ Jaw Type and Cup Size
- Alligator jaws are great for gripping slippery tissues.
- Fenestrated cups reduce crush artifacts, preserving sample integrity.
This is vital for cases like diagnosing GI tumors in dogs using biopsy forceps, where clear margins matter.
✅ 可重复使用 vs 一次性使用
- Reusable endoscopic forceps are cost-effective long-term but require rigorous sterilization.
- Single-use biopsy forceps help prevent cross-contamination, especially between exotic and domestic pets.
✅ 消毒的便利性
选择可以完全拆卸或安全高压灭菌的钳子。清洁不当是导致内窥镜和钳子损坏的主要原因。
Pro Tip: Siempre siga las pautas del OEM para la esterilización de las pinzas de biopsia endoscópica veterinaria. El manejo inadecuado es una de las principales causas de anulación de la garantía.
How Much Do Veterinary Endoscopic Biopsy Forceps Cost?
Expect to pay:
- 💰 $100–$500 美元用于高质量可重复使用的活检钳
- 💰 $3–$200 美元每个用于一次性版本
Factors like material grade, brand, and specialized tip types (like hot biopsy forceps) can adjust this range.

Practical Tips: Using Biopsy Forceps Safely in Your Practice
🔍 How to Use Endoscopic Biopsy Forceps in Veterinary Practice
- Advance your endoscope under direct vision to the target site.
- Introduce the biopsy forceps through the working channel.
- Open jaws just before the lesion, then advance slightly and close.
- Gently retract, watching to avoid snagging mucosa.
🐾 Minimizing Complications
- Always use forceps appropriate to the biopsy forceps sizes for small pets like rabbits or ferrets.
- Keep an eye on patient vitals—biopsy can occasionally trigger vagal responses.
🧼 Aftercare
- Follow strict cleaning protocols. Check each forceps for complete closure before reuse.
What actually makes a good endoscopic biopsy forceps?
- Clean, sharp jaws — you want them to cut, not crush. It’s the difference between a sample your pathologist loves and one they struggle with.
- Solid build — cheap metal bends or corrodes fast. Pay for the stuff that holds up after dozens of sterilizations.
- Right size cups — tiny patients like ferrets or kittens don’t need big jaws. Match the forceps to who you treat most.
- Comfortable grip — awkward handles slip just when you’re trying to snag that elusive bit of tissue.
- Fits your scope — sounds obvious, but plenty of clinics get caught with the wrong diameter. Double-check your endoscope’s channel.
- 易于清洁——因为感染是你不希望与诊所相关联的噩梦。
Case Snapshot: Biopsy to Save a Tiny Patient
Recently, a small animal clinic in Kuala Lumpur used a flexible endoscope and biopsy forceps to diagnose chronic weight loss in a rabbit. A simple mucosal biopsy revealed early gastric lymphoma—allowing treatment to start weeks sooner than it would have with exploratory surgery.
Not only did it save the rabbit’s life, but it also boosted the clinic’s reputation for advanced veterinary gastroenterology biopsy instruments.
Why Quality Accessories Make or Break Your ROI
Investing in premium veterinary endoscopy instruments, including biopsy forceps, pays off in:
✅ 更短的麻醉时间（等待获取样本的时间更少）。
✅ 更少的重复程序（由于样本不良）。
✅ 更强的客户信任，因为您可以向业主展示图像并准确解释为什么需要进行活检。
真实案例：布里斯班的一家小诊所升级到了高档活检钳，手术时间缩短了20%。更少的重复镇静意味着客户更满意——而兽医团队也不需要加班来重做遗漏的样本。
It’s why many clinics see rapid returns on upgrading to complete endoscopy systems with proper accessories.
A 2023 review published by theVeterinary Endoscopy Societyshows that clinics adopting high-quality biopsy forceps and endoscopic accessories often see not just better sampling, but also increased client compliance and improved financial returns over time.
常见问题解答
📌 GI检查和耳部检查用的钳子有什么区别？
GI forceps are long and flexible, designed for curved passages. Veterinary otoscope biopsy forceps are usually rigid and much shorter.
📌 How often should reusable biopsy forceps be replaced?
Inspect after every procedure. With proper care, high-grade forceps can last hundreds of cycles—but the moment jaws dull or misalign, replace them.
📌 Do forceps work across brands?
Check specs carefully. While many forceps fit standard channels, unique locking or sheath systems mean forceps compatibility with veterinary endoscope brands varies.
