  • ENERGIZED CORERS WITH ENERGIZED INTERNALS
    Publication number: 20230039545
    Abstract: An electrosurgical device including an elongated body extending from a proximal portion to a distal portion and defining an internal passageway configured to convey tissue from the distal portion to the proximal portion, and a coring electrode positioned at the distal portion of the elongated body, where the coring electrode is at an opening to the internal passageway, and where the coring electrode is configured to deliver electromagnetic energy to adjacent tissue to cut a volume of the tissue as the tissue is conveyed into the internal passageway.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 3, 2021
    Publication date: February 9, 2023
    Inventors: Roger D. Greeley, Bradley W. Jacobsen, Xiaoming Cheng, Amy Bradley, Yeung Chow, Anjali Dhiman, Yahia Laouar, Prakash Manley, Martin Masson, Molly Ann Megna, Katherine M. Puckett, Wade Schutte
  • ENERGIZED CORERS WITH POWERED CONVEYING
    Publication number: 20230040816
    Abstract: An electrosurgical device including an elongated body extending from a proximal portion to a distal portion and defining an internal passageway configured to convey tissue from the distal portion to the proximal portion; a coring electrode at the distal portion of the elongated body, where the coring electrode is positioned at an opening to the internal passageway, and where the coring electrode is configured to deliver electromagnetic energy to adjacent tissue to cut a volume of the tissue as the tissue is conveyed into the internal passageway; and a powered conveyance mechanism positioned within the internal passageway configured to further cut the volume of the tissue and convey the volume of the tissue proximally within the internal passageway.
