- a throughbore 26A is normal to the parallel walls and is provided for receiving the pivot 18.
- the second arm 12B has a connector wall portion 28B having a pair of parallel surfaces for sliding contact with the inner surface of the slot 24A when the arms 12A and 12B are coupled to one another.
- a throughbore 3OB is normal to the parallel surfaces, and is coaxially positioned with respect to the throughbore 26A when the arms 12A and 12B are coupled to one another, so as to receive the pivot 18 therein.
- the operative end 16 of the device 10 comprises fingers 4OA and 4OB.
- the fingers 4OA and 40B have respective clip supporting surfaces 42A and 42B.
- the fingers 4OA and 40B are curved with respect to a plane in which the device 10 generally lies. This feature is preferable as it increases the visibility of the fingers 4OA and 40B by the surgeon.
- the clip engaging surfaces 42A and 42B are substantially flat. However, as will be described hereinafter, the clip engaging surfaces 42A and 42B may have various patterns or shapes.
- the abutment stoppers 22A and 22B are positioned to come into contact one against the other generally simultaneously with the coplanar encounter of the clip engaging surfaces 42A and 42B.

- the finger 4OB has a protruding bar 43B with deflecting formations Accordingly, when a closing action is performed on the device 10, the protruding bar 43B enters the cavity 5OA with soft tissue being entrained therein. In doing so, the treading portions 72 of the staple clip 70 puncture the parts of soft tissue, to meet with the deflecting formations of the protruding bar 43B to cause the treading portions 72 to bend inwardly (similarly to a paper staple), as illustrated in Fig. 9 to provide securement and retention. Accordingly, soft tissue is squeezed between the bent treading portions 72 and the coupling portion 74, so as to facilitate cicatrisation.

- the pointed heads of the treading portions 108A is preferably larger in diameter than the throughbores 112B to ensure that the connectors 102A and 102B remain connected to one another, with parts of soft tissue squeezed between the contact surfaces 104A and 104B for cicatrisation.
- the clip 100 preferably consists of a biodegradable polymer, whereby it has some level of resiliency, such that the pointed heads can squeeze through the throughbores 112B even though they are of larger diameter.
- the clips 100 are applied to soft tissue by way of the connectors 11 OA and 110B being received in the channel 5OA in Fig. 5 and a corresponding channel (not shown) of the finger 40B.
- the channels 50 prevent lateral displacement of the clips 100 with respect to the clip engaging surfaces 42 and provide perfect alignment of the male and female portions of the clip.
- a closing action of the device 10 causes the male portion 102A and the female portion 102B to interconnect with soft tissue squeezed between the contact surfaces 104A and 104B. Once the portion 102A and 102B are interconnected, the device 10 can be opened to release the portions 102A and 102B.
- the device 10 with snap-fit locking means to releasably secure the clip portion thereto.
- the snap-fit locking means would be adapted to release the clip upon separation of the fingers 4OA and 40B from one another.
- the interconnection force between the portions of the clip would be above the force required the snap-fit force retaining the clip portions to the device 10.
- the clips described in Figs. 6 to 11 are preferably made of a bio-absorbable polymeric material and are coated or may encapsulate a pharmaceutical agent, such as an anesthetic, an analgesic and/or an antibiotic for gradual local delivery to the soft tissue being held for cicatrisation.
- a pharmaceutical agent such as an anesthetic, an analgesic and/or an antibiotic for gradual local delivery to the soft tissue being held for cicatrisation.
- an antibiotic such as CiproTM can be used for the treatment of acute hemorrhoidal disease.
- a suitable anesthetic is Xyloca ⁇ neTM
- suitable analgesics are CelebrexTM and ToradolTM.
- the biodegradation of the clips will cause the release of the agent, thereby delivering the agent locally. This will enable to avoid in most cases having to prescribe narcotics to the patient following surgery.
- the use of the clips in accordance with the present invention will substantially reduce the pain caused by the surgery in the case where an an

- the clip supporting portion 242B receives a clip portion B that is complementary to clip portion A, as will be described hereinafter. More specifically, the clip supporting portion 242B has a plurality of throughbores 243B.
- THIRD ARM 212C Referring to Fig. 13, and as mentioned previously, the third arm 212C is used to lock the clip portions A and B together.
- the third arm 212C has a ratchet portion 220C adjacent to the finger-engaging loops 220A and 220B.
- the ratchet portion 220C will cooperate with a retaining member 223A of the first arm 212A, such that the third arm 212C cannot be separated by scissor motion once the ratchet portion 220C and the retaining member 223A are engaged.
