A selectively movable drive rod extends through the elongated shaft (16) and carries a cam pin in a longitudinal direction. An end effector (14) for surgically treating tissue is supported by the elongated shaft and includes upper and lower jaw members (30, 32) pivotally coupled to one another about a pivot axis. The upper jaw member includes a first pair of laterally spaced flanges, and the lower jaw member includes a second pair of laterally spaced flanges defining a camming slot for engaging the cam pin. The flanges are arranged in an offset configuration where one flange of the upper jaw member is positioned on a laterally exterior side of a corresponding flange of the lower jaw member, and the other flange of the upper jaw member is positioned on a laterally interior side of the other flange of the lower jaw member.1/23 CDJ cc J C JD (10
