The object of this invention is to provide a stent for high frequency thermotherapy, which is fabricated by knitting first superlastic shape-memory alloy wires as a way to allow the first superelastic shape-memory alloy wires to cross each other at different positions to make a hollow cylindrical stent body having a net structure with a plurality of meshes. The stent body is covered with an insulating substance. A hollow cylindrical conductive body surrounds a waist part of the stent body while any one end or both ends of the conductive body is attached to the waist part of the stent body. At this time, the conductive body is fabricated by knitting second superelastic shape-memory alloy wires as a way to allow the second superelastic shape-memory alloy wires to cross each other at different positions.

Stent for high frequency thermotherapy

The object of the present invention is to provide an electrode device for high frequency thermotherapy, including a main casing, an electrode needle, a first engaging part, and a guide unit coupled to the engaging part to be longitudinally moved relative to the electrode needle. The guide unit has a guide tube to receive therein the electrode needle to expose a tip of the electrode needle to the outside of an end of the guide tube. Thus, the exposed length of the tip of the electrode needle is varied according to a position that the guide unit is coupled to the engaging part. The electrode device may further include a three-way valve -provided between the main casing and the guide unit to supply a liquid medicine or water t a desired part of a patient body.
