Devices, systems, and methods for reverse irrigation of an ablation or treatment site. In one embodiment, a reverse irrigation device comprises at least one ablation electrode and at least one reverse irrigation port, the at least one reverse irrigation port being located at at least one of immediately proximate the at least one ablation electrode and on the at least one ablation electrode, the at least one reverse irrigation port being configured to be in fluid communication with a fluid removal component. A medical system may include an ablation system and a reverse irrigation system that are configured to operate synchronously such that the reverse irrigation system is activated to remove fluid from the ablation site during a period of time during which the ablation system is activated to deliver ablation energy through the at least one ablation electrode to the ablation site.
