Abstract
A tissue-manipulating system including a tissue-manipulating device having a tissue grasper assembly with at least one grasper arm movably coupled to a shaft to move between a closed configuration and an open configuration. The at least one grasper arm may be pivotably coupled to the shaft, such as via a collar. A tissue-manipulating device controller is coupled to the tissue grasper assembly to move the at least one grasper arm between the closed and open configurations. The tissue grasper assembly is positionable to move a distal tissue wall closer to a proximal tissue wall. The tissue grasper assembly may be deployable (such as by separating from the shaft) to remain in place holding the distal tissue wall and proximal tissue wall in apposition.
