    Area of Science:

    • Medical Devices
    • Surgical Techniques
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Liver biopsy is crucial for diagnosing liver diseases.
    • Traditional liver biopsy can be time-consuming and invasive.
    • Need for streamlined biopsy methods during abdominal surgeries.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present an adapted percutaneous needle biopsy technique for liver biopsy.
    • To facilitate liver biopsy during upper abdominal procedures.
    • To reduce the time required for liver biopsy.

    Main Methods:

    • Adaptation of the percutaneous one-second needle biopsy technique.
    • Utilizing a simple three-way deviator device.
    • Employing standard needles with large caliber (1.6–2.0 mm).

    Main Results:

    • The entire liver biopsy procedure takes 10 to 30 seconds.
    • The adapted technique is efficient and rapid.
    • Complications associated with the procedure are practically nonexistent.

    Conclusions:

    • The adapted technique offers a fast and safe method for liver biopsy.
    • This innovation simplifies liver biopsy during upper abdominal procedures.
    • The technique shows high efficacy and minimal risk.
