Abstract

Proposed is a banana clip for removing hemorrhoids, and a surgical tool set including the banana clip. The banana clip includes a clip main-body having a first clip arm and a second clip arm, connected to each other by a flexible bending portion in a manner that maintains a predetermined bend angle with respect with each other, which are closed with an outside force in a state where the hemorrhoids to be removed are interposed therebetween and thus are tied tightly around the hemorrhoids; and a holding guide, guiding relative motions of the first clip arm and the second clip arm when the clip main-body is bent inward.
