METHOD FOR EXTRACTING TUBULAR STRUCTURES

摘要

A method for extracting a tubular structure from tissue using a device including a handle having an actuator, an elongate body with a first end coupled to and extending from the handle, and an operational head disposed at a second end of the elongate body. The operational head is longitudinally movable between a neutral position and an actuated position. The method includes inserting the elongate body into the tubular structure; placing the operational head into the actuated position; engaging the tubular structure with the operational head when in the actuated position; and pulling the tubular structure from the tissue by moving the operational head.
