Patent ID: 8062309

Claim:
An apparatus, comprising: a positioning device having an elongate body with a proximal end and a distal end, the elongate body includes a wall that extends from the distal end toward the proximal end to a surface that extends away from the wall, the wall defines a wall opening, the elongate body includes a first lumen, a second lumen, a third lumen, and a channel, where the first lumen extends toward the surface, the second lumen extends toward the distal end of the elongate body, the third lumen extends from the wall opening and completely through the distal end of the elongate body to a transverse opening to define the third lumen, and the channel is defined by a surface of the elongate body; an elongate structure having two pivots coupled to an outer surface of the elongate structure, where the elongate structure is releasably positioned within the second lumen toward the distal end of the positioning device, the second lumen, the channel, and the third lumen form a contiguous conduit for the elongate structure, and the two pivots rotate the elongate structure from the channel to the third lumen; an extension member slidably positioned within the first lumen; and a fastening member releasably positioned within a lumen of the elongate structure.
