It has a fixed arm and an open/ close arm it is shaped like a wedge in order to facilitate dissection as well as sliding into the correct tissue plains. Device is proven in sealing blood vessels up to 7 mm in size so it enables safe ligation of arteries that come directly off the aorta and feed the esophagus as well as bronchial vessels and short gastric vessels.
