| titleOfInvention | Serpentine ablation/coagulation electrode |
| abstract | The present invention provides devices, systems and methods for using a single electrode structure (10) for both resection and ablation. Generally, the electrode structures of the present invention comprise fixed wire shapes which avoid the complexity and binding that often result when known roling ablation elements are powered to the high electrosurgical potentials required for the removal of tissues. Electrosurgical energy requirements are minimized by concentrating potential at narrow cutting surfaces (14), and physician effort is avoided by minimizing the total profile of the device along a selected cutting axis. In the exemplary embodiment, a serpentine wire (18) has multiple electrosurgical elements which are arranged with a low cutting profile, and which provide a large lateral surface area (24) for simultaneous ablation of uterine and other tissues. |
