A endoscopic bipolar forceps for clamping and sealing tissue includes first and second jaw members pivotally attached in opposing relation relative to one another which are movable from a first open position wherein the jaw members are disposed in spaced relation relative to one another to a second clamping position wherein the jaw members cooperate to grasp tissue therebetween. A drive rod assembly connects each of the jaw members to a source of electrical energy such that the jaw members are capable of conducting bipolar energy through the tissue held therebetween. A handle attached to the drive rod assembly imparts movement of the first and second jaw members from the first and second positions. At least one stop member is attached to the jaw members for controlling the distance between the jaw members. The forceps may also include a yoke member for insulating the jaw members from one another to prevent short circuiting of the forceps. Preferably, the yoke member and jaw member interface is dimensioned to withstand the high shearing forces normally associated with sealing tissue.

1. A bipolar endoscopic instrument for sealing tissue, comprising: a pair of first and second jaw members having opposite electrical potentials and being movable from a first position in spaced relation relative to one another to a second position wherein the jaw members cooperate to conduct bipolar energy through tissue held therebetween, each jaw member including a tissue sealing surface; a yoke which electrically insulates the jaw members during activation and sealing, the yoke including: at least one detent which moves the jaw members from the first to second positions upon linear reciprocation of the yoke; a pair of shoulder portions which abut the jaw members in the second position and offload pressure on the pin during clamping and sealing of tissue; and at least one stop member attached to at least one of the tissue sealing surfaces of one of the jaw members for controlling the distance between opposing jaw members during sealing. 2. A bipolar endoscopic instrument for sealing tissue, comprising: a handle; an elongated drive rod having distal and proximal ends; a pair of first and second jaw members being disposed in electro-mechanical communication with the elongated drive rod and being movable upon reciprocation of the elongated drive rod from a first position wherein the jaw members are disposed in spaced relation relative to one another to a second position wherein the jaw members cooperate to conduct bipolar energy through tissue held therebetween; a resilient arm disposed within the handle for receiving the proximal end of the elongated drive rod for longitudinal and rotational movement within the handle; and at least one stop member attached to at least one of the jaw members for controlling the distance between opposing jaw members during sealing. 3. A bipolar endoscopic instrument according to claim 2 wherein the elongated drive rod conducts a first electrical potential to one of the jaw members and the forceps includes means for conducting a second electrical potential to the other of the jaw members. 4. A bipolar endoscopic instrument according to claim 3 wherein the means for conducting a second electrical potential includes an outer tube which is electrically insulated from the elongated drive rod. 5. A bipolar endoscopic instrument according to claim 4 wherein the handle includes a rotating assembly attached to a distal end thereof, the rotating assembly mechanically cooperating with the outer tube to rotate the jaw members about a longitudinal axis disposed through the outer tube. 6. A bipolar endoscopic instrument according to claim 2 further comprising a yoke which electrically insulates the jaw members during activation and sealing. 7. A bipolar endoscopic instrument according to claim 6 wherein the yoke cooperates with the elongated drive rod to move the jaw members, the yoke including: at least one detent which moves the jaw members from the first to second positions upon linear reciprocation of the elongated drive rod; and a pair of shoulder portions which abut the jaw members in the second position and offload pressure on the pin during clamping and sealing of tissue. 8. A bipolar endoscopic instrument according to claim 2 wherein the proximal end of the elongated drive rod includes a generally rounded head and the resilient arm includes a bifurcated distal end which forms a clevis and is dimensioned to receive the generally rounded head therein.
