Title:
ABLATION ASSEMBLY TO TREAT TARGET REGIONS OF TISSUE IN ORGANS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/044312
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an ablation assembly (100) to treat target regions of a tissue (41) in organs (44) comprising : - an ablation catheter (1) comprising an elongate shaft (13) having a longitudinal main direction (X-X), said elongate shaft (13) comprising at least a shaft distal portion (17), said shaft distal portion (17) comprising a shaft distal portion distal end (19); said ablation catheter (1) comprising an inner lumen (118) arranged within the elongate shaft (13); said ablation catheter (1) comprising a shaft ablation assembly (20) fixedly disposed at said shaft distal portion (17), the shaft ablation assembly (20) being configured to deliver both thermal energy for ablating said tissue (41) and non-thermal energy for treating said tissue (41); - at least a shape setting mandrel (26) disposed within the ablation catheter (1), the shape setting mandrel (26) being insertable within the inner lumen (118) and removable from the inner lumen (118), wherein the shape setting mandrel (26) is free to move in respect of the inner lumen (118) avoiding any constraint with said shaft distal portion (17) during the shape setting mandrel insertion, wherein the shape setting mandrel (26) comprises at least a pre-shaped configuration and the shape setting mandrel (26) is reversibly deformable between at least a straight loaded configuration and said pre-shaped configuration, wherein, when the shape setting mandrel (26) is fully inserted in the shaft distal portion (17), the shape setting mandrel (26) is configured to shape set said shaft distal portion (17) with said pre-shaped configuration.
