ABSTRACT:
Suture clip tongs include a main portion and a handle portion pivotably connected to the main portion. A magazine for suture clips is removably attached to the main portion. The magazine is formed by two sectional members which define a guide duct for the suture clips. When the magazine is being filled with the suture clips, the sectional members can be successively slid one into the other. This substantially facilitates filling and assembly of the magazine. The main portion of the tongs includes a bending mechanism for the suture clips. The magazine as well as the bending mechanism are reusable.
