Surgical forceps

Abstract

Abstract Surgical forceps having - a forceps grip (4) which is connected, via two tubular elements arranged one within the other and movable axially relative to one another, to a forceps bit (7) in such a manner that the forceps bit (7) can be opened and closed by actuation of the forceps grip (4), - an endoscopic device (1) having an endoscope stem (2) which is arranged within the inner tubular element, and - a suction device, which terminates at the forceps bit (7). The outer tubular element, starting from the forceps grip (4), is designed over one section in the longitudinal direction as a twin tube (11), in one tube part of which the inner tubular element is received, while the other tube part forms the extractor pipe of the extractor device and can be connected to a suction device, the tube parts of the twin tube (11) leading, at a point at a distance from the forceps bit end, into each other and into the inner tubular element, and the endoscope stem (2) being so arranged that, when the forceps bit (7) is closed, it is retracted at least through the aperture (15) of the tube parts of the twin tube (11) and, when the forceps bit (7) is opened, it is advanced again as far as the base of the forceps bit (7). <IMAGE>
