Olympus | EndoJaw Disposable Biopsy Forceps | Fenestrated Cup with Needle | FB-231D

The Olympus EndoJaw FB-231D is a premium, single-use pulmonary biopsy forceps designed to obtain high-quality tissue specimens from the tracheobronchial tree during diagnostic bronchoscopy procedures. Engineered with an ultra-smooth, low-friction sheath, this device slides easily through fully deflected flexible bronchoscopes without damaging delicate internal working channels.

The distal end features a fenestrated oval cup design integrated with a central tracking needle (alligator/spike configuration). This mechanical layout allows for precise tissue anchoring at steep angles, preventing the forceps from slipping off target lesions during sample capture.
