A medical probe device including a catheter having a stylet guide housing with one or more stylet ports in a side wall thereof and a for directing a flexible stylet outward through the stylet port and through intervening tissue at a preselected, adjustable angle to a target tissue. The total catheter assembly includes a stylet guide lumen communicating with the stylet port and a stylet positioned in said stylet guide lumen for longitudinal movement from the port through intervening tissue to a target tissue. The stylet can be an electrical conductor enclosed within a non-conductive layer, the electrical conductor being a radio frequency electrode. During the ablation operation, the tissue immediately adjacent the stylet can become desiccated, thereby necessitating an increase of current flow and a loss of ablation efficiency. A forward and reverse movement of the non-conductive sleeve on the stylet during an operation frees the stylet from sticking tissue and creates a space around the electrode to allow the tissue to rehydrate.
A method for the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy of a prostate of a human male having a bladder with a base and a penis with a urethra therein formed by a urethral wall extending into the base of the bladder along a longitudinal axis with the prostate having tissue surrounding the urethra
A method for the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy of a prostate of a human male having a bladder with a base and a penis with a urethra therein formed by a urethral wall extending into the base of the bladder along a longitudinal axis with the prostate having tissue surrounding the urethra near the base of the bladder by the use of a radio frequency electrode formed of an electrically conductive material and being relatively rigid so that it can serve as a stylet and having a sharpened distal extremity serving as a tissue puncturing tip comprising the steps of introducing the radio frequency electrode into the urethra and advancing it longitudinally of the urethra along the longitudinal axis until the tip is in the vicinity of the prostate, thereafter advancing the radio frequency electrode in a direction at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the urethra to cause the radio frequency electrode to penetrate the urethral wall and to extend into the tissue of the prostate so that a preselected length of the radio frequency electrode including the tip is exposed to tissue in the prostate to thereby select a target volume of the tissue in the prostate surrounding the exposed length of the radio frequency electrode to be exposed to radio frequency energy, supplying radio frequency energy to the radio frequency electrode so that radio frequency energy is supplied to the selected target volume of the prostate surrounding the exposed length of the radio frequency electrode at a sufficient power level and for a sufficient period of time to raise the temperature of the tissue of the prostate in the selected target volume to cause ablation of the tissue in the selected target volume, separating ablated tissue from the radio frequency electrode while the radio frequency electrode is within the prostate, continuing the ablation of the tissue in the selected target volume and thereafter withdrawing the radio frequency electrode from the tissue of the prostate and out of the urethra whereby the separation of the ablated tissue from the radio frequency electrode improves the efficiency of the treatment.
