ABSTRACT:
A metallic clip, to fasten two ends of latex surgical tubing under tension when used as a ligation element especially as in the castration of animals, provides a cylindrical tubular element defining an axially aligned slit through its periphery, with each side portion adjacent the slit defining angulated slots extending spacedly inwardly from a first end of the clip in a diverging fashion, to receive tubing ends. The clip defines an outwardly extending alignment protuberance inwardly from the second end of the clip in a position diametrically opposed to the peripheral slit. For use two latex surgical tubes are passed through the clip channel and one end portion of the tube is inserted in each slot. After tensioning the tubing, the clip is mechanically deformed, preferably by a tool created for such purpose, to bend each body portion between the slot and the slit inwardly to fasten each adjacent tube portion between that clip portion and the opposite side wall of the clip.
