Abstract: A medical extraction device comprising: (a) a sheath including a distal end configured to be inserted into a patient and a proximal end configured to be retained exteriorly of the patient; (b) a basket configured to extend from a distal end of the sheath and be repositionable between an expanded position and a retracted position, the basket including at least three loops, the basket also including a first guide and a second guide, where the first guide receives portions of the first loop and the third loop, where the second guide receives portions of the first loop and the second loop, where the second loop and the third loop are fixedly mounted to one another at a location interposing the first guide and the second guide; and, (c) a handle control operatively coupled to a proximal end of the sheath and being operatively coupled to the basket, the handle control configured facilitate repositioning of the basket with respect to the sheath between the retracted position and the expanded position.
