Abstract: An adjustable electrocautery surgical apparatus for selectively delivering electosurgical coagulation and cut current from an electrosurgical generator to a surgical site is provided comprising an elongated body, an extension member passing at least partially through the elongated body, a track in the elongated body for guiding the extension member, an electrode blade attached to the extension member for cutting or coagulating tissue, and an adjustable lock coupled to the extension member for selectively adjusting the position of the extension member and electrode blade relative to the elongated body and for locking the extension member and electrode blade in a selected position. A longitudinal channel passes through a sidewall of the elongated body member. A plurality of stops are positioned in the channel for providing a sequence of stop positions between maximally retracted and maximally extended positions of the apparatus.
