ABSTRACT:
A surgical microclip particularly adapted for microvascular anastomoses is described as including a pair of arcuate legs interconnected by a bridging section. The clip is formed of a unitary piece of biologically acceptable, plastically deformable material, and further has two spaced "ears" to facilitate handling and removal of the clip. Also disclosed is a tool for applying the clip, comprising a tweezer-like device having a pair of arms for crimping the microclip, with a fine suction conduit extending along a bisector of the angle between the arms to hold the clip prior to crimping.
