Electrosurgical forceps, for e.g. laparoscopic operation, has shank with shank tube, where electrical conductor is designed as metal layer between two insulating layers of multi-layer arrangement, which is arranged on surface of tube

摘要

The forceps has a shank with shank tube (2), which extends over a length of the shank, where electrodes (8,9) are arranged at an end of the tube. One electrode is connected with a proximal end area of the shank by an electrical conductor. The electrical conductor is designed as a metal layer (12) between two insulating layers (15,16) of a multi-layer arrangement, which is arranged on a surface of the tube.
