Abstract
A electrosurgical device for selectively carrying out bipolar coagulation tissue has a preferably elongate instrument housing (10) with a guide tube (14) for three mutually insulated contact rods (11, 12, 13) which are arranged therein. Two of the contact rods (12, 13) serve at their free ends as coagulation electrodes (22, 23) and the center one (11) serves as a cutting electrode (21) which can be moved towards or through the two coagulation electrodes. In this arrangement a switching device (16) is provided with the aid of which an Rf current suitable for bipolar coagulation can be applied to the coagulation electrodes (22, 23) in a first switch position. In a second switch position, the coagulation electrodes (22, 23) are connected in parallel while a potential suitable for tissue cutting is applied to the cutting electrode (21).
