Abstract: A percutaneous device for closing blood vessels has a main body in which a distal clip and a proximal clip connected to each other by a tie rod are accommodated, an abutment element, and a handle for maneuvering the distal and proximal clips, the abutment element and the tie rod. The distal clip has a proximal housing, and the proximal clip has a distal housing and a proximal housing. The tie rod is positioned inside the housings when the distal and proximal clips are inserted inside the main body, so as to not interfere with correct sliding thereof.
