Article Title: A spring-coil tipped cannula for anchoring cystic lesions during stereotactic aspiration: Technical note
Abstract: A device to facilitate the stereotactic aspiration of cystic lesions is described. The device anchors the cyst wall, allows penetration of the lesion without displacement, and assures proper positioning of the tip of the aspiration needle within the cyst so that the contents may be evacuated without spillage.
