  • Publication number: 20230346405
    Abstract: An apparatus has an outer sleeve having a longitudinal axis and a wire having opposed first and second ends. A portion of the wire forms a wire loop that extends from the opposed first and second ends in a first direction along the longitudinal axis. The wire loop surrounds an operational area. Retraction of at least one of the first and second ends of the wire in a second direction opposite the first direction along the longitudinal axis decreases the operational area of the wire loop.
