ABSTRACT:
A instrument (2), particularly suited for endoscopic use, has an elongate body (4) including a base (6) and an elongate tip carrier tube (8) rotatably mounted to the base. A removable tip assembly (10), mounted at the distal end of the tip carrier tube, includes jaws (26,28) actuated by finger and thumb loops (16,18) mounted to the base. A rotary actuator trigger (78) is slidably mounted to the base. The tip carrier tube has a spiral groove (90) engaged by a cam pin (82) extending from the trigger so that axial movement of the trigger causes rotary motion of the tip carrier tube and the tip assembly therewith.
