A surgical system includes an attaching device having an end effector disposed at the distal end thereof. The end effector includes a support member, a wrist pivot pivotably coupling the end effector to the attaching device, and first and second jaw members pivotably coupled to one another and the support member. A first cable is operably coupled to the wrist pivot and configured to articulate the end effector relative to the attaching device. Second and third cables are operably coupled to the jaw members and configured to pivot the jaw members relative to the support member. A first actuation of the second and third cables collectively pivots the first and second jaw members relative to the support member. A second actuation of the second and third cables pivots the first and second jaw members relative to one another and the support member between a spaced-apart position and an approximated position.

A device comprising: (a) a first working arm; (b) a shuttle located on the first working arm, and (c) a bias device; wherein the bias device biases the first working arm when the shuttle is in a first position, and wherein the bias device is free of biasing the first working arm when the shuttle is in a second position.

Provided is a bending structure and a joint function part, capable of ensuring sufficient flexibility and rigidity in an axial direction. The bending structure is provided with an outer coiled part formed of a wire wound in a coiled shape and an inner coiled part formed of a wire wound in a coiled shape and arranged in the outer coiled part, wherein the outer coiled part has a plurality of gaps to distance adjacent coils, and coils of the inner coiled part are provided so as to correspond to the gaps of the outer coiled part and fit between the adjacent coils while being in contact with the adjacent coils of the outer coiled part.

A medical device that includes a shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, the shaft defining a lumen extending from the proximal end of the shaft to an opening on a side of the shaft. The medical device includes a grasping tool proximate to the distal end of the shaft and configured to fix the distal end relative to a target site. The medical device further includes a lock at the proximal end of the shaft and configured to fix the proximal end to an ancillary device.

A surgical instrument, operable to compress, staple, and cut tissue, includes a body, a shaft, and an end effector with a pair of jaws. A placement tip that is bent, angled, or curved and extends distally from one of the jaws of the end effector. The placement tip is elastically deformable when the placement tip is subject to a clamping force, such as when the end effector is closed with the jaws in contact or when tissue is clamped between the jaws of the end effector. When the placement tip deflects, relative angles defined in part by the placement tip vary compared to an initial state without the clamping force. Furthermore, a distal end of the placement tip may change position based on the state of deflection of the placement tip in response to the clamping force.

New disposable system devises and procedure for circumcision. The new procedure is by using the clamp in the same way of using bone cutter forceps, the penis marked by skin marker below the level of coronal sulcus, the prepuce retracted, a glans protector probe introduced above the glans, the prepuce pulled back over the probe, grasped by fingers on the probe to have painless holding. The modified bone cutter with blind cut end and groove on the upper surface is applied on the level of the skin mark. Light pressure separates the glans protector from its handle, then strong pressure on prepuce applies by this modified bone cutter, a sharp knife cuts the prepuce above the instrument, left a skin tag in the groove of the instrument, a heated oval shape stainless steel coated cupper cautery pass above the grove, the heating is by gas or electricity, but the electrical current must be cut off before application, the temperature between 140-300, glans protector removed no need for any dressing. Another modification is the removable disposable heads of the bone cutter. The result is very rapid circumcision with the lowest complication specially bleeding.

Embodiments include an end effector including an anvil, the anvil having an anvil face, an anvil blade channel defined by the anvil face, a first pocket row of first row staple pockets, a second pocket row of second row staple pockets, a third pocket row of third row staple pockets, a fourth pocket row of fourth row staple pockets, a fifth pocket row of fifth row staple pockets, a sixth pocket row of sixth row staple pockets, a cartridge having a cartridge face defining a cartridge blade channel, the cartridge being configured to retain a plurality of staples, and a blade, the blade having a cutting edge, where the blade is movable from a first position at a distal end of the cartridge to a second position at a proximal end of the cartridge.

A medical instrument includes a first hand lever which has a manually actuated grip portion at its proximal end, a work portion for gripping, clamping or cutting an object at its distal end, and, lying between these, a bearing portion on which a bearing element engages in order to permit pivotability about a rotation axis between the first hand lever and a second hand lever, wherein the second hand lever has a grip portion at its proximal end, a work portion at its distal end, and, lying between these, a guide portion on which the bearing element engages, wherein the guide portion of the second hand lever has on one side a recess for receiving the bearing portion of the first hand lever such that two guide protrusions located distally and proximally of the recess at least partially cover the bearing portion in an operating position.
