Abstract

In a forceps system for use in an endoscope, tissue separation is achieved by means of a jaw structure (82) at the inner end of a sleeved tubular structure suitable for insertion through a passage of the endoscope. Samples separated by the jaws (82) are entrained in a flow of liquid which traverses an internal duct (71) of the forceps system to bring the samples to a retrieval point external of a patient in use of the system. The flow of liquid through the duct may be established by application of vacuum at the external end of the system or by a positive flow of water carried inwardly through passages (74) defined between flattened portions (73) of the duct (71) and the inner wall of a sleeve (72) sheathing the duct (71). The invention thus enables successive samples to be taken by a forceps system in endoscopic operations, without requiring withdrawal of the forceps for retrieval of each individual sample. A forceps device according to the invention for use with an endoscope may also comprise two jaws displaceable towards and away from one another for engagement and separation of a portion of tissue during a closing movement of the jaws. The jaws are biased into an open configuration and are displaced into a closed disposition by relative displacement of a shank from which the jaws extend and an outer sleeve, to effect a collet-type gripping action. The shank and the jaws are formed integrally, preferably from a plastics material, thereby to facilitate the provision of a disposable forceps structure for use in endoscopy.
