ABSTRACT:
A medical staple device for holding, driving, and withdrawing medical staples comprising a uniquely configured integral member of metal construction wherein, due to the intrinsic nature of the material, opposed staple holding portions are formed which naturally tend to move away from each other and wherein the terminii of the opposed portions are configured to receive in secure, captive relationship therebetween a medical staple which is to be held, driven or withdrawn from bone, tissue and the like. A sleeve or driver member is threadably associated with the device to exert, in a discrete manner, closing forces upon the opposed portions retaining the medical staple to either secure it therebetween or to release same from its grasp. The device is of relatively low-cost, unsophisticated construction and essentially trouble-free in operation.
