Until now the forceps used for biopsy of the bladder has required a second procedure to coagulate the bleeding resulting from tissue removal. A new biopsy forceps is described, which makes it possible to perform the biopsy and coagulation simultaneously, thus, eliminating the inconvenience of having to change instruments during the operation. The shaft
