Abstract

See full text

An ultrasonic surgical clamp coagulator apparatus is configured to effect cutting, coagulation, and clamping of tissue by cooperation of a clamping mechanism of the apparatus with an associated ultrasonic end-effector. Rotational positioning of an elongated portion and end-effector is achieved by the provision of a clutch mechanism incorporated into a housing apparatus. The arrangement permits the elongated portion to be rotatably positioned with respect to the apparatus housing and permits rotation of a the end-effector relative to the elongated portion.
