20140358165 | Tissue Suturing Device - Provided is a surgical instrument that is substitutable for an operation of placing each stitch with a threaded needle or a stapler. It is confirmed that, in a tissue suturing device including a clamping section, and a protruding section including a central conductor and/or an external conductor for applying a microwave, the protruding section and the clamping section bring fragmentary portions of tissues to be sutured into contact or overlap with each other, and coagulate and/or fix contact or overlap portions with the microwave, to thereby stitch the tissues to be sutured. | 12-04-2014 |

20100023001 | Microwave endoscope forceps - Provided is an operating tool for organism, in particular, a microwave endoscope forceps. In terms of the operating tool for organism, provided is a multifunctional operating tool which has holding and scissors functions simultaneously, and may further perform coagulation (tissue fixation) by microwaves. The operating tool has no definite fulcrum, and has both the holding and scissors functions with a simple structure by deforming a long-track rod called beam. Two blades are insulated from each other so as to allow microwave current supply. With this structure, an operating tool having three functions, i.e., “a holding function”, “a coagulating function”, and “a cutting function” with a single tool may be developed. | 01-28-2010 |
