ABSTRACT:
A cutting electrode for medical resectoscope has an insulated loop support displaceable in the axial direction of the resectoscope shaft, the distal end of the support carrrying an un-insulated cutting loop extending from the end of the loop support transversely to the axial direction a predetermined distance depending on the extent of cutting desired. A spacer carried by the loop support extends distally in front of the cutting loop and laterally of the cutting loop a smaller distance than that of the cutting loop and is shaped to provide smooth, low-friction engagement with tissues with which it comes in contact.
