Zusammenfassung:Presented are a method and apparatus for surgical procedures. An exemplary apparatus includes a body having a longitudinal axis, the body comprising a hollow passageway extending through the longitudinal axis from an inlet at a distal end to a port at a proximal end. The apparatus further includes an electrode extending from the distal end of the body adjacent to the inlet. The apparatus also includes a swivel portion moveably coupled to the port, the swivel portion having a second hollow passageway fluidly coupled to the hollow conduit extending from the port to an outlet, wherein the swivel portion comprises a first swivel element operable to rotate around the longitudinal axis relative to the body, and wherein the swivel portion comprises a second swivel element operable to rotate relative to the first swivel element and the body.
