<p>An electrode assembly for a resectoscope includes a cutting electrode (2) with a loop distal tip and a first power density. A coagulation electrode (1) has a loop distal tip and a second power density that is smaller than the first power density. A support frame (6) is connected to the cutting and coagulation electrodes (2, 1). The coagulation electrode (1) provides tissue coagulation simultaneously while the cutting electrode (2) cuts tissue. A resectoscope is disclosed which includes the electrode assembly. The resectoscope includes a sheath (14) with a sheath lumen, a working element (15), and a visualization element (6).</p> |
