  • Bipolar electrosurgical probe having insulated overlapping conductive elements
    Patent number: 10130417
    Abstract: A bipolar electrosurgical probe configured for applying electrical energy to tissue includes a first tubular electrode carried by a probe shaft and having a distal end, a second tubular electrode carried by the probe shaft and having a proximal end, and an insulation member, wherein at least a portion of the insulation member is disposed between overlapping ends of the first and second tubular electrodes, wherein the distal end of the first electrode defines at least one aperture extending through a wall of the first electrode.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 31, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 20, 2018
    Assignee: Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc.
    Inventors: Kimbolt Young, Rollie E. McCallister

  • Bipolar electrosurgical probe having insulated overlapping conductive elements
    Patent number: 8241281
    Abstract: A bipolar electrosurgical probe includes electrodes separated by an insulation member. One end of an electrode is inserted into an aperture of the other electrode. An insulation material is disposed between e.g., injected into, a space between a bottom surface of one electrode and a top surface of another electrode so that at least a portion of the insulation member is disposed between overlapping ends of the electrodes.
