More Information
Summary:A biological tissue closing device includes a clamper comprising a stick portion provided at a distal portion of a catheter for sticking to a biological tissue, and a sandwich member for sandwiching the biological tissue in cooperation with the stick portion, and an electric energy supply unit for supplying electric energy to the clamper. The biological tissue is fused by making the stick portion and the sandwich member of the clamper be electrode members, by sandwiching the biological tissue with the clamper and by supplying electric energy from the electric energy supply unit, wherein the clamper is configured so that each of the stick portion and the sandwich member are movable independently with respect to the catheter.
