Abstract
A surgical clip comprises a body with two outwardly projecting jaws. The body includes a passage through which one of the jaws is inserted to form a looped body with the jaws extending outwardly in mutually juxtaposed relationship. The body is integrally hinged at its midsection. The jaws are formed to provide a reverse curve clamping path for an interposed member such as a blood vessel and, in a preferred embodiment, a trough for supporting the member is formed in one of the jaws.
