摘要 |
The present invention provides a bipolar high-frequency treatment tool for coagulating and incising the vital tissue, comprising a pair of jaws provided at a distal end portion of an elongated member such that they can be closed and opened between a closed position and an open position, an operation unit having a handle provided at a proximal end portion of the elongated member, the operation unit closing and opening the jaws when the handle is operated, a first electrode portion provided at one of the jaws, and a second electrode portion provided at the other of the jaws. When vital tissue is gripped between the jaws, the effective electrode surface of the second electrode portion, which is to be brought into contact with the vital tissue, is smaller than that of the second electrode portion.
