The first hinge connects the first ends and the second hinge connects the second ends so that the jaws are movable between at open configuration, in which the jaws are separated from one another, and a closed configuration, in which the jaws are drawn toward one another to grip tissue therebetween. The first and/or second hinges is/are biased to draw the clip toward the closed configuration. The portion connects an end of each of the hinges to a corresponding one of the first and second ends. The connecting includes an engaging feature engaging via a through-the scope device to extract the clip from a tissue over which it has been clipped upon a deployment thereof.
