Bipolar coagulation forceps

Bipolar frequency coagulation forceps for the coagulation of the Fallopian tubes, said forceps including two insulated current conductors affording a pair of resiliently spreading forceps arms which are closed by relative longitudinal shifting of an actuating sleeve accomplished with the aid of a handle, portions of the forceps arms located proximally to free ends of the conductors being insulated and each having a first curvature for closing the forceps by means of said sleeve, and having insulation-free second curvatures of less diameter than said first curvature located between said first curvature and said free end for clamping a Fallopian tube, and the free ends of the conductors being straight and insulation-free, adapted during the closing of the forceps to be placed approximately parallel to one another on opposite sides of the adjacent mesosalpinx.
