Abstract
A cutting device (200) includes a receiver (404) and a translating head (403). The receiver includes a mounting plate (407) with a first fastener delivery device (307) and a second fastener delivery device (308) coupled thereto. A first gatherer (410) and a second gatherer (411) each extend distally from the mounting plate between the first fastener delivery device and the second fastener delivery device. A cutter (416) extends distally from the mounting plate between the first gatherer and the second gatherer. The translating head includes a complementary cutter (425) to engage the cutter to impart a scissor cutting action as the translating head translates toward the receiver. The translating head can also optionally include a third gatherer (423), a fourth gatherer (424), a first bender (421), and a second bender (422) as well.
