Zusammenfassung:An electrosurgical device (100) is provided comprising an inner catheter (102) extending along a longitudinal axis (142); an outer catheter (104) comprising a first section (110) and a second section (112), the first and second sections each being tubular and having a wall thickness extending between an inner diameter and an outer diameter, the inner diameter configured to accommodate the inner catheter (102). A balloon (108) is disposed around the inner catheter (102) and extends between the first and second sections of the outer catheter (104). The balloons (108) include opposing first and second ends and a tubular inflatable member having an outer surface between the opposing first and second ends, and the balloon (108) is transformable between a non-inflated state and an inflated state. A plurality of tubular electrodes (106) extend along the outer surface from the first end to the second end of the balloon when the balloon (108) is both in the fully inflated state and the non-inflated state.
