Abstrakt: Xenografting of neoplasms is a common technique in cancer research. Implantation of non-uniform tumor tissue fragments often yields tumor nodules of irregular size and shape, which is disadvantageous. We therefore developed a device to standardize size and shape of such implants. This instrument is effective, inexpensive to fabricate, and simple to use.
