ABSTRACT:
A device for dissolving friable or coagulated tissue within a human body is provided, such lysing operation being achieved through high-speed rotation of at least one thread- or ribbon-like lysing member. Lysing is achieved through shear and/or wear. A flexible drive member, used to rotate the at least one lysing member, may be received within an encompassing, static flexible member. Interaction between the rotating flexible drive member and the encompassing static flexible member causes at least lysed tissue to be pumped and further dissolved along the encompassed length of the flexible drive member.
