Abstract:
1. A tissue treating device comprising: a fastener having a first element, a second element, and a connection portion connecting the first element to the second element; a moving mechanism having a biasing element connected to the first and second elements, the biasing element configured to move the second element relative to the first element; and an extension device configured to releasably hold the fastener via the biasing element, a distal end of the extension device configured to expose the first element independently of exposing the second element such that the first element is disposed at an angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the extension device when exposed, the distal end further configured to expose the second element, such that the second element, when exposed, is moved by the biasing element toward a deployed position in which, if no tissue is received between the first and second elements, the first and second elements extend from the connection portion at the angle substantially parallel to one another.
