Abstract:
A surgical instrument includes a selectively rotatable housing, an adaptor, and a shaft including an end effector. The adaptor is coupled to the housing and is selectively movable between a first position and a second position. The shaft is coupled to one or both of the housing and the adaptor. The end effector is articulable in response to the selective rotation of the housing. The end effector is articulable toward a first direction when the adaptor is positioned in the first position and articulable toward a second direction when the adaptor is positioned in the second position. The first and second directions are different.

Claim (Index 2):
A surgical instrument comprising:\n a housing rotatable about an axis; an adapter coupled to the housing, the adapter selectively movable between a first position and a second position relative to the housing; and an end effector operatively coupled with the housing, the end effector configured to articulate in response to a selective rotation of the housing, the end effector configured to articulate towards a first direction when the adapter is positioned in the first position and the housing is rotated in a third direction about the axis, and towards a second direction when the adapter is positioned in the second position and the housing is rotated in the third direction about the axis.
