ABSTRACT:
A surgical tool comprises a slidable member having a passage therethrough such as a substantially cylindrical hollow tube. The distal end of the slidable member serves as a first jaw component. An elongated member is positioned in the passage and has a second jaw component on its distal end adapted to oppose the first jaw component. A handle is connected to the slidable member for sliding the same over the elongated member to change the spacing between the first and second jaw components and to apply force to the object held between the jaw components.
