<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a surgical stapling device for applying an array of surgical staples to tissue. <P>SOLUTION: This stapling device includes an approximation mechanism for moving a cartridge assembly and an anvil assembly between spaced and approximated positions and a firing mechanism for ejecting the array of staples from the cartridge assembly. A single trigger is operable to effect approximation and firing of the device. The device also includes an alignment pin assembly which can be selectively manually or automatically advanced. The anvil assembly includes a stiffener plate which allows the device to have a reduced head portion profile. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
