Description

Technical Field

[0002] Thermal steam ablation is a minimally invasive, safe, and fast-recovering treatment method with good therapeutic effects. It can treat glandular hyperplasia by injecting high-temperature steam into the gland to reduce the size of the gland. Due to its strong targeting, it is not easy to cause adverse damage to healthy tissues near the affected area of ​​the human body.

[0003] At present, thermal steam ablation surgery generally uses manual insertion of a steam delivery tube into the human body, and with the help of an endoscope to locate the area to be treated, the puncture needle at the front end of the steam delivery tube is inserted into the area to be treated and steam is injected. Compared with the traditional method of manually introducing a steam delivery tube, the use of an ablation gun can utilize the telescopic structure of the ablation gun to drive the puncture needle to extend and retract from one end of the cannula, which is convenient for operation, but the steam generating structure is arranged outside the ablation gun. The steam first enters the ablation gun, and then goes to the puncture needle through the steam delivery tube in the ablation gun, and finally the steam is injected into the affected part of the human body. In this process, because the steam is far away from the puncture needle, the heat loss of the steam during the transportation process is large, resulting in insufficient temperature of the steam when it contacts the affected part, and the ablation gun also lacks a structure for installing a steam generator.

[0011] Beneficial Effects

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the steam generating device of the steam ablation gun of the utility model has the following advantages:

[0013] 1.
