Abstract: A medical treatment apparatus includes an energy source, a first treating portion joining the living tissues together, a second treating portion which is interposed between the living tissues and which denatures a joint surface of the living tissues in contact with the second treating portion, a detecting portion, and a controller. The first treating portion includes holding members having holding surfaces to hold the living tissues, and an energy output unit which is provided on the holding surfaces and which join the living tissues together when energy is applied thereto from the energy source. The detecting portion detects at least one of biological information regarding the living tissues held by the pair of holding members and regarding the living tissues between the holding members and the second treating portion. The controller controls an output of the energy output unit and the second treating portion on the basis of the biological information.

Abstract: A medical treatment apparatus includes an energy source which applies energy to living tissues, a first treating portion which joins the living tissues together, a second treating portion which is interposed between the living tissues and which removes surface portions of tissues in the joint surfaces of the living tissues, a detecting portion, and a controller. The first treating portion includes at least a pair of holding members having holding surfaces to hold the living tissues, and an energy output unit which is provided on the holding surfaces of the holding members and which join the living tissues together when energy is applied thereto from an energy source. The detecting portion detects biological information regarding the living tissues held by the pair of holding members. The controller controls outputs from the energy output unit in accordance with the biological information regarding the living tissues obtained by the detecting portion.
