ABSTRACT:
A manipulator tool for grasping an anastomosis cuff has two gripping fingers with indentations. When the gripping fingers are brought together, the indentations form an aperture between the gripping fingers which is used to surround and grasp the outer surface of an anastomosis cuff. The indentations can have various shapes to conform to different sizes and different shapes of cuffs. The gripping fingers may also be adjustable and replacable. The manipulator tool may also include a latching or locking device for keeping the tool closed in a particular position.
