ABSTRACT:
An operative laparoscopic instrument is equipped with proximal and distal loops closed by slip knots and tightenable from the proximal end of the instrument. A forceps extending from the distal end of the instrument grasps an anatomical tube to be both ligated and transected and pulls it into the instrument past both loops. The distal loop is first tightened to ligate the tube and the proximal loop is then tightened to transect the tube.
