ABSTRACT:
An electrosurgical electrode configured for use in a breast plastic surgical procedure comprises an elongated forceps that is operated as a unipolar electrode. The electrosurgical electrode is provided with internal channels that can provide suction or fluids at the surgical site when a source of suction or fluid is connected to the electrode. It is provided with uniquely configured cutting edges at its distal end for cutting tissue while simultaneously coagulating any bleeding that occurs. It can cleanly and precisely cut tissue and coagulate bleeding vessels at the same time.
