Claim Text:
1. A surgical tool comprising: a body having a pair of legs, each leg having a leading edge and a butt end, the pair of legs being directly connected together at the butt ends, wherein the pair of legs are configured to come close to each other and depart away from each other at the leading edges; and a deformable connecting wire having opposing ends thereof connected directly to the leading edges of the pair of legs and extending forwardly therefrom, the wire having a linear configuration along the entire length between the opposing ends thereof, wherein the deformable connecting wire is folded so as to have a peak that extends forwardly away from the leading edges in a direction opposite to the connected butt ends when the leading edges of the pair of legs are both close to and departed away from each other, the folding of the wire enabling peak-first insertion thereof into a thin-diameter duct of parenchymal organ, wherein the connection of the opposing ends of the wire to the leading edges of the legs enables portions of the wire extending between the peak and the leading edges to be moved towards and away from each other together with the leading edges moving towards and away from each other, respectively.
