Abstract
There is disclosed a ligating device which includes a magazine housing containing a supply of ligating clips. The device has two handles and when these handles are squeezed together they clamp a ligating clip about a vessel to be ligated. When the handles are released, a linkage between one of the handles are released, a linkage between one of the handles and the magazine, feeds a succeeding ligating clip into position for use. Thus, the feed of clips in the device is entirely independent of any effort on the part of the surgeon using the device.
