Abstract
A blood vessel clip applicator comprises a magazine adapted to hold a plurality of blood vessel clips therein and two twist pins at one end, whereby the twist pins can be rotated to compress a blood vessel held between them. A blood vessel clip, having a head connected to first and second legs in a 'V' configuration, is placed on the blood vessel after it has been flattened. The magazine has a constricted region adjacent to an exit aperture. As the head of a blood vessel clip passes through the constricted region, the compressive force exerted on the head by the constricted region opens or closes the legs of the blood vessel clip. A variety of blood vessel clips having different shapes, cross-sections and grooves are suitable for use with the blood vessel clip applicator.
