The present disclosure is directed to a device for excising tissue including an outer hollow member having a lumen communicating with a distal opening. The device also includes an elongate member having a longitudinal axis and a distal end, the elongate member being longitudinally movable within the outer hollow member lumen such that the distal end of the elongate member can be moved from a first configuration distal to the outer hollow member distal opening and a second configuration more proximal to the outer hollow member distal opening. Further, the device includes at least one grasping member hingedly disposed about a distal portion of the elongate member along a generally longitudinal axis, wherein movement of the elongate member from the first configuration to the second configuration can cause displacement of the at least one grasping member about the generally longitudinal axis.
