A clip for use in surgery which comprises a lower and an upper portion interconnected by a flexible bridge portion wherein the lower clip portion has at its free end a pin with pointed end extending toward the upper clip portion and the upper clip portion has at its free end a rounded protector nose and has, adjacent thereto, an opening adapted to receive and engage the pin when the upper and lower clip portions are pressed together and the bridge portion is deformable at two points essentially at right angles such that, upon final deformation of the bridge portion, with the clip closed the lower and upper clip portions extend essentially parallel and are, at the bridge portion closer together than they are by simply closing the clip before the final deformation of the bridge portion.
