摘要:
An endoscopic surgical instrument forpassing a suture through tissue includes a first jaw member,a needle, and a capture feature actuable to grip andretain the suture after the suture has been passed througha tissue body. An actuation mechanism can both movethe needle between retracted and extended positions, andmove the capture feature between open and closed configurations,via a single actuation. The capture featuremay be a trap door which is axially translatable relative tothe first jaw member to overlap a portion of the first jawmember and trap a portion of the suture between the trapdoor and the overlapped portion. The first jaw membermay be movable relative to a second jaw member to graspa tissue body. The instrument can grasp a tissue body,pass the suture through the tissue, capture and retain thesuture without being repositioned relative to the tissue.
