<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To develop a small, simple and cost effective combination bipolar and monopolar instrument which can be utilized with small cannulas, and to provide an instrument which includes an easily manipulatable handle and instrument body which includes a mechanically advantageous force-actuating assembly to reduce user fatigue. <P>SOLUTION: The present disclosure relates to an endoscopic forceps 10 having a housing 20 with a shaft 12 attached thereto, the shaft 12 including a pair of jaw members disposed at a distal end thereof. The forceps 10 also includes a drive assembly disposed in the housing 20 which is configured to move the jaw members relative to one another from a first position wherein the jaw members are disposed in spaced relation relative to one another to a second position wherein the jaw memers are closer to one another for manipulating tissue. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
