METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND APPARATUSES FOR TISSUE ABLATION USING ELECTROLYSIS AND CRYOSURGICAL TECHNIQUES

摘要

Examples of cryoelectrolysis probes are described which are able to both freeze tissue and deliver electrolysis products. The probe may be metal and may serve as the anode or the cathode used to provide electrolysis products. Methods of performing cryoelectrolysis include freezing tissue before, during, or after delivering electrolysis to the same tissue.
