Electrosurgical handpiece for treating tissue

摘要

A bipolar electrosurgical handpiece, and electrode for use with the handpiece, that is configured for use in MIS and other electrosurgical procedures. The handpiece is constructed with a flexible end controllable by the surgeon so as to allow the surgeon to manipulate the end as desired during the surgical procedure. The electrode is housed in a tubular member. The electrode ends comprise bare loops projecting from the end of the housing in spaced parallel planes. When energized, a bipolar discharge is generated between the bare loops.
