Claim:
1. A system for treating tissue comprising: a probe configured for insertion through a skin into a tissue for mechanically cutting, the probe comprising a cutting core disposed in a housing, the cutting core having at least one sharp edge located at a distal port of the cutting core for cutting, the cutting core also having a channel formed therein for providing aspiration of fluid and bulk tissue from the distal port while the sharp edge is cutting; a surgical console for controlling aspiration through a flexible tubing line connected thereto which is in fluid communication with the cutting core channel; a pinch valve in fluid communication with the flexible tubing line for releasing aspiration in the flexible tubing line and cutting core channel so that aspired tissue may be selectively released from the distal port; a sealing device on the probe for simultaneously tamponading, inducing hemostasis, and dilating a plurality of lumens, said device including a plurality of tamponading balloons configured for inflation with a coolant fluid; and an inflatable sheath having a lumen therein sized to receive the probe.
