REVERSE ANASTOMOSIS CLOSURE CLIP

A system includes a clip, a member and a control member. The clip includes a barrel member defines a cavity therein and clip arms. Distal ends of the arms are connected to one another and slidably received within the cavity to be moved between open and closed configurations. The member includes a lumen extending longitudinally therethrough. A distal end of the member in contact with the distal ends of the arms to hold the arms distally against the barrel member. The control member is slidably received within the lumen so that a distal end of the control member extends distally past the distal end of the member and the distal ends of the arms to be connected to the distal end of the barrel member. A longitudinal movement of the control member relative to the longitudinal member moves the arms between the open and closed configurations.
