Abstract
A hand operable bipolar forceps instrument comprising two interfacing pivotal blade member's which are each an electrode individually pivotable in relation to each other. Pivotal movement of the blades is effectuated by two respective electrically-conductive rigid rods, each coupled to a respective blade member, extending through an elongated tubular member having disposed at its proximal end a scissors type handle whose hand operation causes the blade members to pivot in relation to each other. The rods are connectable proximally to an energy source to thereby electrically activate the blade members.
