Abstract
A simple method of biopsy for breast tumors by means of a new electric drill is described.
Biopsy with this apparatus is performed safely and accurately, and it is possible
to obtain a part of suspect tumor large enough to allow histological diagnosis. This
biopsy apparatus could contribute to early detection of breast carcinoma and the results
of surgical treatment would be improved.
