Abstract
An end effector for a transverse type surgical stapling device includes an anvil assembly and a cartridge assembly. The cartridge assembly includes a knife assembly having a knife blade and a guide pin. The guide pin is movable between retracted and advanced positions to confine tissue between the anvil assembly and the cartridge assembly. The end effector includes a body that supports a guide member that is spaced from the guide pin. The guide member and the guide pin are positioned and configured to engage the knife blade when the stapling device is fired to more effectively cut tissue clamped between the anvil and cartridge assemblies.
