ABSTRACT:
An instrument is provided for applying an occlusion clip on an anatomical tubular structure such as a fallopian tube. An elongated housing can be inserted through a narrow incision, and carries at its forward end a pair of jaw means for applying a clip which is composed of a bendable material. The jaw means are movable relative to one another with the bendable clip disposed between them. Longitudinally reciprocable actuating means extends along the length of the elongated housing, so that the jaw means may be operated from the rearward end of the elongated housing. The jaw means have forward ends which are movable toward and away from each other to close and to open the jaws, and the jaw means have rearward ends which are always spaced apart from each other throughout the closing and opening movement of the jaws, to provide controlled pressure on the tubular member without completely crushing it.
