Abstract
An endoscopic bipolar forceps includes a housing, a shaft affixed to the housing, and a pair of jaw members attached to a distal end of the shaft. The forceps also includes a drive assembly for moving one of the jaw members relative to the other jaw member from a first position to a second position for manipulating tissue. A movable handle is included which is rotatable about a pivot to force a drive flange of the movable handle into mechanical cooperation with the drive assembly to move the jaw members from the first position to the second position. The forceps is connected to a source of electrosurgical energy connected to each jaw member such that the jaw members are capable of conducting bipolar energy through tissue held therebetween.
