Abstract

See full text

In a surgical applicator tip for delivering clips used for connecting tissues, the applicator tip includes a magazine chamber, which receives a magazine with clips having tissue engagement claws and an operating mechanism by which the clips can be removed from the magazine and supplied to the front end of the applicator such that the claws project forwardly therefrom the applicator tip for piercing and engaging tissue parts. Each clip includes a shoulder with an elbow lever structure which, with the tissue pierced by the claws, is pushed against the shoulder whereby the claws are tilted toward each other for firmly holding the tissue parts in contact with each other.
