Radiofrequency induced endometrial ablation: an update.
OBJECTIVE To test the safety and efficiency of radiofrequency endometrial ablation as a nonhysteroscopic treatment of dysfunctional uterine bleeding. DESIGN A multicentre trial. SETTING Nineteen clinics in six countries. METHODS From February 1990 to December 1994, 1280 women were treated with radiofrequency endometrial ablation. Inclusion criteria were: menorrhagia, age 30-55 years, a co...
متن کاملHaemostatic partial nephrectomy using bipolar radiofrequency ablation
Objectives: To present our experience with laparoscopic radical cystoprostatectomy and bilateral nephroureterectomy for organ-confined, muscle-invasive transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder in two patients with dialysis-dependent end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Patients and Methods: Two men aged 77 and 65 years with organ-confined, muscle-invasive TCC of the urinary bladder and pre-e...
متن کاملHaemostatic partial nephrectomy using bipolar radiofrequency ablation.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether an electrode array with a bipolar radiofrequency ablation (RFA) energy source can be used to perform a haemostatic partial nephrectomy by simultaneously ablating and coagulating renal tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS Lower-pole partial nephrectomy was performed in 12 porcine kidneys using a bipolar RFA system. Intraoperative ultrasonography was used to identify and...
متن کاملPredictors of Sick Sinus Syndrome in Patients after Successful Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Atrial Flutter
PURPOSE The identification of sick sinus syndrome (SSS) in patients with atrial flutter (AFL) is difficult before the termination of AFL. This study investigated the patient characteristics used in predicting a high risk of SSS after AFL ablation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Out of 339 consecutive patients who had undergone radiofrequency ablation for AFL from 1991 to 2012, 27 (8%) had SSS (SSS gro...
متن کاملBipolar radiofrequency ablation of the kidney: comparison with monopolar radiofrequency ablation.
PURPOSE We report initial ex vivo and in vivo studies using bipolar radiofrequency (RF) ablation of porcine kidneys. An internal ground electrode is positioned in the kidney opposite the RF electrode, resulting in ablation of all the intervening renal tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ex vivo preparations of 10 porcine kidneys were perfused continuously with Ringer's solution and treated with eit...
