A hand-held instrument is disclosed for use in surgery. The instrument has a set of opposed jaws that pivot about a common axis with respect to a shaft of the instrument's handle. The upper jaw has an upper blade rigidly affixed to one side thereof. A lower blade is rigidly affixed to the shaft. When the upper jaw and upper blade are jointly forced to pivot downward by a push rod on the shaft, the rotating upper blade moves past the stationary lower blade to amputate a piece of tissue in scissor-cutting fashion. The lower jaw is simultaneously forced (by the interposed tissue) to rotate about its pivot downwardly, i.e. in the same direction as and in fixed tandem with the upper jaw. The lower jaw is held tightly against the interposed tissue via a stiff spring against which the lower jaw is biased. The spring causes the jaws to tightly clasp the tissue in plier-clamping fashion during and after its amputation from its attachment. The instrument is operated by a scissor handle arrangement.
