An instrument used for delivering a hemostat (210) including intermediate shaft (132) and an inner shaft (134) telescopically received therein, and an inflatable balloon (160) coupled to the distal ends thereof. The intermediate and inner shafts are movable relative to one another so as to enable the balloon to assume either a spherical shape or a toroidal shape.
