Abstract
An electro-surgical forceps has double recessed irrigation channels. The forceps includes a pair of blades mounted in a cap portion. A groove is recessed in the inner surface of each of the blades. Tubing is disposed in the grooves. The tubing terminates at a location spaced from the termination of the grooves to provide an outlet from the grooves. The depth of the grooves and the outer diameter of the tubing are selected such that the tubing is substantially recessed below the inner surface of the blades sufficiently that a surgeon's view of the inner faces of the tips of the blades is not obstructed by the irrigation channel. The blades may be covered with an insulating material if desired.
