A suture passing forceps includes an axially elongated support shaft (20), and a first suture holder (14) for removably holding a needled suture (30) and a second suture holder (16) for capturing the needled suture. The first suture holder includes a suture inlet (40) through which at least part of the suture can be passed. The first suture holder or the second suture holder is an actuatable member which pivots toward an operating position to capture the needled suture in the second suture holder and pivots away from the operating position to remove the suture from the first suture holder. The suture inlet in the suture holder enables complete removal of the suture from the suture holder when the actuatable member and the needled suture move away from the operating position. The second suture holder includes a holding region defined by a contoured surface permitting the needled suture to slide within the holding region.

Pince de guidage pour fil de suture, comprenant une tige porteuse (20) allongée dans le sens axial, et un premier support de fil (14) adapté pour maintenir de manière amovible un fil de suture (30) enfilé dans une aiguille, ainsi qu'un second support de fil (16) adapté pour saisir le fil enfilé. Le premier support de fil comprend une ouverture (40) par laquelle peut passer au moins une partie du fil de suture. Le premier ou le second support de fil est un élément asservi apte à pivoter vers une position active afin de fixer le fil enfilé dans le second support de fil, et à s'écarter de cette position active afin de retirer le fil du premier support de fil. L'ouverture ménagée dans le support permet de retirer la totalité du fil du support lorsque ledit élément et ledit fil enfilé s'écartent de la position active. Le second support de fil comprend une zone de retenue délimitée par une surface profilée permettant au fil enfilé de glisser à l'intérieur de ladite zone de retenue.
