Abstract
A biopsy needle set includes an introducer cannula having an elongate tubular body defining a lumen extending from an open proximal end to an open distal end. The introducer cannula also includes a lateral opening through a distal segment of the elongate tubular body that is in fluid communication with the lumen. The biopsy needle set also includes a biopsy needle configured to be telescopically received within the lumen of the introducer cannula. The biopsy needle includes a preformed curve causing a distal tip of the biopsy needle to point in a direction that is offset from a longitudinal direction of the introducer cannula. The biopsy needle set includes a first extended configuration in which the distal tip is advanced through the lateral opening and a second extended configuration in which the distal tip is advanced through the open distal end.
