ABSTRACT:
A surgical forceps for use in clamping vascular tissue in a body cavity where the tissue being clamped may not be in full view of an operator. The forceps have jaws of uneven length with a projection on the longer jaw starting immediately at the end and extending above the shorter jaw when the forceps are closed. The shorter jaw closes adjacent the projection, with minimal space between, thus ensuring that a selected vascular tissue is contained between the jaws and the projection.
