ABSTRACT:
A closure device for use following various surgical procedures to close access openings through the tissue wall while permitting post operative flow through the tissue conduit includes a housing having proximal and distal ends, and defining a longitudinal axis. First and second tissue everting members are mounted adjacent the distal end of the housing and first and second jaw members are mounted adjacent the first and second tissue engaging members. The first and second jaw members are adapted for relative movement between an open position to facilitate positioning about the tissue portions in the everted condition and a closed position to at least partially draw the tissue portions together to an at least partial approximated condition. Electrodes are associated with the first and second jaw members and arranged to contact the respective tissue portions.
