Abstract:
A cannula assembly for radiofrequency ablation of tissue. A cannula body includes a cannula distal section including electrically conductive material. A cannula bend is between proximal and distal sections, and a lumen extends between the proximal and distal ends. A side opening is within an outer side of the cannula body and opening into the lumen. A body is dimensioned to be inserted and seated within the lumen of the cannula. The body includes a body bend such that, depending on a rotational orientation of the body relative to the cannula body, a body distal section is seated within the lumen of the cannula distal section or extends out of the side opening. An electrically insulating sleeve may be disposed over the cannula body. Complimentary indicia on a cannula hub and a body hub provide an indication of the rotational orientation of the body relative to the cannula body.

Claim (Index 13):
A cannula for an assembly for radiofrequency ablation of tissue with an electrode, said cannula comprising:\n a cannula hub; a cannula body comprising:\n a proximal section that is linear and including a proximal end coupled to said cannula hub; \n a distal section that is linear and including a distal end opposite said proximal end with said distal section comprising electrically conductive material; \n a bend between said linear proximal and distal sections; \n a lumen extending through said linear proximal section, said linear distal section, and said bend with said lumen adapted to receive the electrode; \n a side opening within an outer side of a section of said cannula body forming said bend with said side opening opening into said lumen; and \n an electrically insulating sleeve disposed over said cannula body.
