Abstract
A biopsy device includes a probe, a needle, a cutter, and a manually actuated needle rotation assembly. The probe includes a probe housing. The needle extends from the probe. The cutter is disposed within the needle. The cutter defines a cutter lumen and at least partially defines a vent lumen between an exterior of the cutter and an interior of the needle. The needle rotation assembly includes a pinion shaft. A portion of the pinion shaft is exposed relative to the probe housing such that the pinion shaft is configured for actuation using a single hand while grasping the biopsy device with the single hand.
