Apparatus for accomplishing the permanent placement of a silicone locking clip having dentate edges around the vas deferens to interrupt the continuity of the same in a rapid, safe and minimally invasive manner. The apparatus includes a trocar-type instrument in which the locking clip is enclosed for delivery to a position proximate to the vas whereupon the jaw members of the trocar-type instrument are opened whereby the clip is opened to an extent such that the vas is receivable therein whereupon the jaw members are closed to lock the clip onto the vas to occlude the same.
