Apparatus for reconfiguring tissue, the apparatus comprising a shaft (15) having a distal end and a proximal end; at least one effector mechanism (35) movably mounted to the distal end of the shaft (15), each effector mechanism (35) comprising at least one gripping element for gripping tissue to that effector mechanism, the at least one effector mechanism (35) being configured to capture the gripped tissue against said shaft (15), at least one actuating mechanism (45) mounted to the proximal end of the shaft (50), and at least one connection mechanism connecting the at least one actuating mechanism (45) to the at least one effector mechanism (35), whereby a user may utilize the at least one actuating mechanism (45) to actuate the at least one effector mechanism (35) so as to reconfigure tissue.

Dispositif servant à reformer un tissu. Le dispositif comprend une tige comportant une extrémité distale et une extrémité proximale ; au moins un mécanisme effecteur monté mobile sur l'extrémité distale de la tige, chaque mécanisme effecteur comprenant au moins un élément de préhension pour saisir un tissu et l'appliquer contre le mécanisme, et étant conçu pour maintenir le tissu saisi contre la tige ; au moins un mécanisme d'actionnement monté sur l'extrémité proximale de la tige ; et au moins un mécanisme de liaison reliant le(s) mécanisme(s) d'actionnement au(x) mécanisme(s) effecteur(s). Le(s) mécanisme(s) d'actionnement permettent à l'utilisateur d'actionner le(s) mécanisme(s) effecteur(s) afin de reformer le tissu.
