STAPLE CARTRIDGE INCLUDING COLLAPSIBLE DECK

摘要

A staple cartridge for use with a surgical stapler can comprise a cartridge deck and a plurality of staples at least partially positioned within the cartridge deck. In use, the staples can be supported by a first jaw of the surgical stapler and deformed by a second jaw. As the staples are being deformed, the cartridge deck can be pushed, or slid, downwardly relative to the staples.
