  • ENDOSCOPIC SNARE DEVICE
    Publication number: 20210282801
    Abstract: A tissue removal tool includes a body, a conduit, a loop, and a transmitting assembly. The conduit is attached to the body and defines an inner lumen, where the inner lumen has a proximal portion having a first width and a distal portion having a second width that is greater than the first width. The loop is movable between an open position in which the loop is at least partially disposed outside of the conduit and a closed position in which the loop is disposed within the conduit. The transmitting assembly includes a handle and a link. The handle is connected to the body, and the link has a first end attached to the handle and a second end attached to the loop such that movement of the handle causes the loop to move between the open and closed positions.
