An excision device including a guide rod assembly and methods of operating the same are disclosed. An excision device includes a housing coupled to a coring cannula, a stylet with a blade, and a guide rod assembly. A hollow central passageway extends through the center of the excision device. The guide rod assembly is coupled to the housing and includes a guide element having first and second ends and comprised of a guide rod and a locking member. The guide rod is slidably disposed within the central passageway. The locking member is fixed to the second end of the guide rod. The guide rod assembly further includes an anchor stabilization rod slidably disposed within the central passageway. A coupling device, a first portion of which is fixed to the guide rod and a second portion fixed to the anchor stabilization rod, couples the anchor stabilization rod to the guide rod.

A biopsy device includes a coring cannula, a retract stylet, and a localization needle. The coring cannula has a longitudinal axis and a shaft centered on the axis. The stylet has a tip containing at least one blade and a central passage. The localization needle has a channel and is slidably disposed within the central passage. A drive mechanism rotates the cannula and moves the cannula in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the cannula. A guide element has a first end and a second end and is slidably disposed within the channel of the localization needle. The guide element is movable from a first position to a second position within the localization needle.

A biopsy device is provided which includes a localization needle having a guide wire preloaded into the biopsy device. The device includes a stylet having a blade for transecting and separating tissue. The device further includes a cannula for cutting a core of tissue and a garrote wire mechanism for cutting a transection of tissue transverse to the core cut by the cannula. The garrote wire is activated by a trigger mechanism which is locked out by a lockout feature within the device until the garrote wire has been advanced around the core of tissue cut by the cannula.
