Surgical ligation clip
First Claim
1. A surgical clip configured to ligate a tissue, the surgical clip comprising:
- a first leg member having a proximal end portion, a distal end portion, a convex first inner surface, and a convex first outer surface, the first leg member including a first inner portion at least partially defining the first inner surface and a first outer portion at least partially defining the first outer surface, the first inner portion and the first outer portion being joined at first and second portions of the first leg member and separated by a first channel, and the first inner portion having a concave outer surface; and
a second leg member having a proximal end portion, a distal end portion, a second inner surface, and a second outer surface, wherein the first and second leg members are movable relative to each other between an open configuration and a closed configuration, and the first and second inner surfaces are configured to ligate the tissue when in the closed configuration.

Abstract
A surgical clip may be configured to ligate tissue. The surgical clip may include first and second leg members. The first leg member may have a proximal portion, a distal portion, a convex first inner surface, and a convex first outer surface. The first leg member may also include an inner portion at least partially defining the first inner surface and an outer portion at least partially defining the first outer surface. The inner and outer portions may be joined at first and second portions of the first leg member and separated by a channel. The second leg member may include a proximal portion, a distal portion, a second inner surface, and a second outer surface. The first and second leg members may be movable relative to each other between open and closed configurations, and the first and second inner surfaces may be configured to ligate the tissue when in the closed configuration.
