Adaptive Curve Approximation by Bending Energy

A manually operable surgical staple extractor has a first handle element provided with a finger-receiving ring end and a second handle element also provided with a finger-receiving ring end. A first and second front portion of the extractor contain a slot and blade section parallel to an anvil and are pivotally connected by a rivet.
