Abstract

A hemostatic clip useful in the strangulation of tubular members and formed of elongate deformable material is disclosed. The clip consists of a pair of arms coupled at one end and open at the other, the arms being separated in a substantially opposed relationship and each having a flat surface facing inwardly. Located in the flat surfaces of the arms are diagonal recesses. The recesses in opposing surfaces are arranged so as to be angularly displaced with respect to one another such that when the surfaces are brought into contact the recesses on opposing surfaces form a cross-hatched pattern.
