Right-angle partially compressible hemostatic clip applier.
A modification of a hemostatic clip applier is described that can apply clips at right angles to the plane of the handles. This device may be particularly useful in certain neurosurgical settings where use of the conventional clip applier is difficult. This device also prevents overcompression of clips.
