Abstract
Suturing forceps and method of suturing includes first and second tool arms being connected and configured to rotate about a pivot. First and second grip ends are arranged at respective distal ends of the first and second tool arms. A suture arm is connected to the first tool arm and/or the second tool arm through a differential rotation mechanism, such as a gear set or mechanism. The suture arm is configured to retain a suture needle. The differential rotation mechanism is configured such that rotation of the first tool arm and/or the second tool arm causes the differential rotation mechanism to cause the suture arm to rotate. A return arm is connected to the first tool arm and/or the second tool arm and the differential rotation mechanism is configured to cause the suture arm to rotate and disengage a suture needle from the suture arm.
