An electrosurgical forceps having an enhanced capability to transfer heat from the tip to eliminate or minimize sticking of tissue is provided. A heat pipe is secured within a groove of at least one tine of the forceps. The heat pipe has an evaporator section in thermal communication with the tip, and a condenser section in thermal communication with a portion of the body, which serves as a heat sink to receive heat transferred from the tip. A method of manufacturing the electrosurgical forceps is also provided.
