Abstract
An electrosurgical instrument having a universal handle that is adopted for mounting and unmounting of different core assemblies for carrying out various electrosurgical procedures. The mounting and unmounting is accomplished by constructing the handle in several parts with upper concave portions configured to receive and hold the core assemblies which are provided with similar outer housings so they all can fit within the concave portions. The handle parts are held together with detent mechanisms which allow them to be easily snapped together and apart as desired. The handle can accommodate a variety of core assemblies that can comprise parts of a family of assemblies capable of both unipolar and bipolar electrosurgical procedures, and thus provides a very flexible instrument for the active surgeon.
