ABSTRACT:
The one-piece aneurysm clip is fabricated from a predetermined length of round metallic rod or wire. The clip includes a pair of cooperable jaw portions and a coil portion that supplies a closing force to the jaws, doing so through first and second connecting portions. The first connecting portion has a longitudinal slot formed therein and the second connecting portion is U-shaped having a thickness correlated with the width of the slot so that the jaw portions are maintained in alignment. The degree of closing force supplied by the coil is determined by the width and depth of a slot formed in a segment thereof.
