Abstract

See full text

In apparatus for applying a two-part surgical fastener including a fastener part having at least one prong and a retainer part having an aperture for receiving and retaining the distal end of the prong, the retainer part is initially held securely to the apparatus by contact with a lug extending into the aperture. When the two parts of the fastener are forced together, the distal end of the prong pushes the lug out of the aperture, thereby releasing the retainer part from the apparatus.
