Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to devices for harvesting blood vessels from the body and to methods of using the devices of the present disclosure to perform the blood vessel harvesting. The vessel harvesting tools include first and second vessel engaging members configured and adapted to engage the vessel. The first engaging member and the second engaging member are axially and rotatably adjustable with respect to one another. The method of harvesting includes providing a vessel harvesting tool having first and second vessel engaging members, creating a working space proximate to an elongate body structure to be harvested, manipulating the vessel harvesting tool to place the elongate body structure between the first and the second vessel engaging members and axially manipulating the first engaging member with respect to the second engaging member to separate the elongate body structure from surrounding tissue.
