ABSTRACT:
A surgical instrument for applying ligating clips. The instrument is made with as few detachable parts as possible to avoid any possibility that parts may be loosened and fall into the body of the person being operated on. The instrument comprises two jaws, one of which is stationary and the other of which can be moved towards the stationary jaw by squeezing the handle of the instrument. The movement of these jaws can be used to apply a ligating clip to a blood vessel or to other tissue.
