Zusammenfassung:A surgical instrument includes a housing having a barrel with distal and proximal end portions. The barrel includes a handle (528) depending from a lower end thereof and a concave portion (535) defined within and extending along an upper surface thereof from the proximal end portion of the barrel to the distal end portion of the barrel. A shaft (580) extends from the distal end portion of the housing and supports an end effector assembly at a distal end thereof configured to treat tissue. The concave portion (535) is configured to enhance visibility of the end effector assembly during tissue treatment.
