Abstract

The present disclosure relates to surgical fastener applying apparatus for sequentially applying a plurality of surgical fasteners to body tissue. The surgical fastener applying apparatus (10) includes a replaceable cartridge assembly (16) receivable in a distal end portion of a cartridge receiving half-section (12), the cartridge assembly including a safety lockout (28) pivotably disposed along the upper surface of the cartridge assembly and movable from an unlocked orientation permitting assembly of an anvil half-section to the cartridge receiving half-section (14), to a locked orientation preventing assembly of the anvil half-section to the cartridge receiving-half section.
