Integrated medical apparatus for non-traumatic grasping, manipulating and closure of tissue

A medical apparatus for remote grasping, manipulation or release of an object comprising:

• At least one hollow lumen extending from an operator end;
• and
• A wire extending through the lumen and axially moving through the lumen, wherein the lead end of the wire extending out of a distal end of the lumen will form at least one loop for the grasping, manipulation and/or release of a desired object, wherein the wire has sufficient memory and is sufficiently flexible such that at least one loop will be selectively coiled and uncoiled as the wire is advanced and retracted relative to the lumen.

A medical apparatus for remote grasping, manipulation or release of an object comprising:

• A grasping lumen;
• and
• multiple prongs positioned within and movable relative to the grasper lumen, wherein the grasping prongs are moved between an open and closed position by relative axial movement between the prongs of the grasping member and the grasper lumen, wherein the prongs of the grasping member are formed as members having a memory of the open position.
