Abstract: Microsurgery instrument particularly for surgical endoscopy/arthroscopy has a first jaw part which protrudes from the distal end of a hollow shaft connected on its other end with a first handle part, and which is stationary on the hollow shaft. A second jaw part is swivellably arranged and can be actuated by a first connecting rod extending through the hollow shaft, by way of a second handle part provided on its other hand, in order to carry out a gripping or clamping operation. On the distal end of the hollow shaft, a cutting device is provided which can be actuated by a third handle part by way of a second connecting rod which is axially displaceable in the hollow shaft to carry out a cutting operation on the gripped tissue section.
