[Experiences with the transthoracal pleura and lung biopsy under thoracoscopic control (author's transl)].
We used the so-called sharp nose forceps for the transthoracal pleura and lung biopsy under thoraco scopeic control. This utensil was introduced by a second puncture besides the thoracoscop. The results are demonstrated in statistics about the achievements of 200 pleuroscopic-bioptical forceps-biopsies. There weren't any serious complications.
