    摘要: The present disclosure pertains to cryogenic devices and related methods. A ferrule coupling according to at least some aspects of the present disclosure may include a male fitting including a bore; a female fitting including a bore, the female fitting sized to receive the male fitting; a conduit sized to fit within the bores of the male fitting and the female fitting, wherein a circumferential gap exists between an exterior of the conduit and an interior surface of the female fitting demarcating the bore; a first ferrule including dual conical surfaces and a cylindrical bore, the cylindrical bore sized to receive the conduit; a second ferrule including dual conical surfaces and a cylindrical bore, the cylindrical bore sized to receive the conduit; and/or a washer including dual conical surfaces and a cylindrical bore, the cylindrical bore sized to receive the conduit.

    摘要: Medical devices and related methods, and, more specifically, cryogenic surgical systems and related methods are disclosed. Some example cryogenic surgical systems may include a cryosurgical control unit configured to cool a cryosurgical probe to a temperature colder than a temperature at which flow of cryogenic fluid to the probe is stopped. Some example tank level indicating systems may utilize the pressure of the fluid in the tank and a temperature of the exterior wall of the tank to indicate liquid level.

    摘要: Cryogenic probes and related methods are disclosed. An example cryogenic probe may include a distal ablation tip and an elongated, generally tubular shaft extending proximally from the ablation tip. The shaft may include a flexible thermoplastic body, a supply conduit extending through the body, and/or an exhaust conduit extending through the body. At least one of the supply conduit and the exhaust conduit may be embedded within the body.

    摘要: Cryogenic devices and methods of using and manufacturing cryogenic devices are disclosed. An exemplary cryogenic device may include an enclosed distal tip delineating a cavity in fluid communication with an egress orifice and an ingress orifice, where at least a portion of an exterior of the distal tip comprises a thermal application zone; an exhaust conduit in fluid communication with the egress orifice; a supply conduit in fluid communication with the ingress orifice, the supply conduit helically extending around at least a portion of the exhaust conduit; and/or a deformable wrap at least partially circumscribing the supply conduit and leaving exposed the thermal application zone.
