ABSTRACT:
The endoscopic instrument is formed as a needle holder with ligature scissors. It comprises at its distal end a jaw-like tool and at its proximal end a handle, these being connected to one another by a common shank. At the distal tool end there is formed the ligature holder and the ligature scissors proximally neighboring thereto. Between these tool parts there is formed a projection limiting the free passage between the needle holder and the ligature scissors, this projection being dimensioned such that although the ligature may be guided through, the needle however cannot get into the region of the scissors.
