ABSTRACT:
A surgical clamp or tissue retractor is disclosed having gripping surfaces from which extend resilient filaments. The distal ends of some of the resilient filaments abut against the engaged vessel or tissue to restrict movement of the vessel or tissue relative to the gripping surfaces. In the preferred embodiment, the resilient filaments are arranged in rows and oriented at particular angles relative to the gripping surfaces.
