Abstract
A medical instrument with a distal and a proximal end. A first tool element and a second tool element are arranged or formed on the distal end so as to be movable relative to one another. The tool elements define a tool element direction of extent from proximal to distal. The first tool element defines a first tool element face and the second tool element defines a second tool element face. The first tool element face and the second tool element face face toward one another. The tool elements define in the region of their tool element faces a width. The widths extend in a direction transverse to the tool element direction of extent and transverse to a surface normal of the first tool element face and/or the second tool element face.
