Abstract
Assemblies for treating a tissue region at or near a sphincter have a support structure with a distal end and an electrode carried by the support structure for contact with the tissue region. A lumen in the support structure accommodates passage of a body through the support structure and beyond the distal end of the support structure. The body can comprise a guide wire to guide deployment of the support structure, or an endoscope to permit visualization of the support structure from beyond the distal end of the support structure.
