Abstract: A cryosurgical probe system includes a fluid supply line connectable at an inlet section to a source of cryogenic fluid; a fluid connector assembly securely connected to an outlet section of the fluid supply line for receiving fluid from the outlet section of the fluid supply line; and, a detachable cryosurgical probe detachably connectable to the fluid connector assembly. The cryosurgical probe system includes the capability of providing return fluid flow.

Abstract: An ablation device placement spacer for use with a patient undergoing a targeted ablation procedure utilizing elongated ablation devices insertable into treatment zones of the patient. The ablation device placement spacer includes an elongated spacing member and at least one ablation device engaging element positioned on the elongated spacing member. During use, an ablation device is releasably engageable with the ablation device engaging element, a spacing portion of the elongated spacing member being spaced from the ablation device engaging element at a desired distance so as to provide the user with an indication of a desired spacing for a subsequent ablation device to be inserted into its respect treatment zone.
