Abstract
An instrument () that is usable for tissue fusion and cutting includes a counter support () configured as a thin membrane that is assigned to a cutting electrode () arranged between two electrode pairs. The thin membrane is spanned in a frame () on which it is held with its circumferential surface in a substance bond manner. The circumferential surface thereby extends in an angle, preferably in a right angle, relative to the coagulation electrodes () formed by the frame top side. The pressing force applied by the membrane with which biological tissue () is pressed against cutting electrode () is thus predominantly created by the tensile stress present in the membrane.
