Abstract: An electrosurgical device includes a first shaft defining a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen therethrough. A fluid delivery tube is disposed within the lumen, the fluid delivery tube defining a proximal end a distal end. An electrically conductive treatment element is in electrical communication with and coupled to the distal end of the first shaft, the electrically conductive treatment element includes a conductive fluid conduit in fluid communication with and affixed within a portion of the fluid delivery tube. A second shaft is in electrical communication with the first shaft, the first shaft being slideably disposed within the second shaft and movable from a first position in which the electrically conductive treatment element is proximate to the distal end of the second shaft to a second position in which the electrically conductive treatment element is advanced a distance away from the distal end of the second shaft.

Abstract: An electrosurgical device including an elongate body including a rigid proximal portion, a distal portion, and defining a lumen there though. A fluid delivery tube is disposed within the lumen. A first electrode coupled to the distal end of the elongate body is included, the first electrode is configured to ablate tissue with radiofrequency energy. The distal portion includes a plurality of slots in fluid communication with the lumen. The plurality of slots are spaced a longitudinal distance proximal from the first electrode. The plurality of slots are configured to aspirate gas released from tissue ablated with the first electrode. The plurality of slots are further configured to provide malleability to the distal portion.
