Abstract

See full text

A body passage having an interior wall with a lining is occluded by introducing a thermal delivery catheter to the passage. The thermal delivery catheter has a thermal transfer region which can deliver both a coagulative tissue necrosis energy dosage and a thermally fixing energy dosage. The coagulative necrosis dosage will result in scar tissue formation, while the thermally fixing tissue dosage will prevent regrowth of the tissue lining from neighboring untreated tissue regions which could compromise the integrity of the occlusion which is formed.
