Devices for harvesting veins or other elongate structures from the body are disclosed. The disclosed devices allow vein harvesting using endoscopic procedures. A working space is created over a vein (6) using standard endoscopic procedures and a side-hooked wire (39) is inserted into the working space and twisted to insert the side-hook (42) under the vein (6). The wire (39) is then pulled or drawn along the vein (6) to separate the vein (6) from the surrounding tissue.

On crée un espace de travail sur une veine (6) à l'aide de procédés endoscopiques classiques et on insère un fil (39) à crochet latéral dans l'espace de travail puis on le tord afin d'insérer le crochet latéral (42) sous la veine (6). Ensuite, on tire le fil (39) le long de la veine (6) afin de séparer ladite veine (6) des tissus environnants.
