Abstract
The present invention provides a surgical device (10) having a tissue engaging portion (16), a shaft member (14), and a handle assembly (19). The tissue engaging portion (16) includes first and second opposed jaws (46, 48) for grasping, securing, and occluding body tissue and conduits. The shaft member (14) is operatively coupled to the tissue engaging portion (16) and is capable of being placed in different curvatures. The handle assembly (19) is operatively coupled to both the shaft member (14) and to the tissue engaging portion (16).
The shaft member (14) of the present invention allows the surgeon to bend and adjust the shape of the surgical device (10) to minimize its intrusion and to allow for proper positioning in predetermined body locations. In a preferred embodiment, a portion of the device is disposable.
The shaft member (14) of the present invention allows the surgeon to bend and adjust the shape of the surgical device (10) to minimize its intrusion and to allow for proper positioning in predetermined body locations. In a preferred embodiment, a portion of the device is disposable.
