Abstract

A pair of bipolar diathermy forceps used for surgery having two arms electrically insulated from each other and adapted to keep opening their tips usually, comprising a tube which extends toward the inside tips of the arms and which is mounted along a groove, the said groove is provided on either or both of the arms, an elongate section which follows the said groove, an operational section inserted between two arms whereby a hole of the tube is open, when the said arms are closed and is closed when they are open, and a pouring section of physiological saline which is connected to the end of the tube. Irrigation is started when the arms are closed and is stopped when they are open automatically. When the tissue is held by the tips of arms and supplied with the current, the coagulation is caused by the high frequency conducted, whereby the control of hemorrhage is completed. The frequent saline irrigation of the work area in microsurgery and the dilution of a little bleeding can be obtained.
