Abstract
A clip for closing blood vessels which branch off from a main blood vessel during an intervention of the main blood vessel has a base body via which the clip can be placed on an inside face of the opened main blood vessel. At least three limbs protrude from the base body and are able to be bent in the direction towards the base body in order to clamp tissue in the area of the branch between the base body and the bent-back limbs thereby closing said branch.
