In an example, an electrosurgical device includes a housing defining an interior bore. The electrosurgical device also includes a shaft telescopically moveable in the interior bore of the housing. The shaft includes an optical waveguide at a distal end of the shaft, and a smoke evacuation channel circumferentially surrounding the optical waveguide at the distal end of the shaft. The electrosurgical device also includes an electrosurgical electrode coupled to the shaft.

Electrosurgical device with illumination and smoke evacuation features

In an example, an electrosurgical device includes a housing defining an interior bore, a shaft coupled to the housing, and an electrosurgical electrode coupled to the shaft. The shaft extends distally from the interior bore of the housing. The shaft is rotationally fixed relative to the housing. The shaft includes a smoke evacuation channel extending from a proximal end of the shaft to a distal end of the shaft. A distal portion of the electrosurgical electrode extends distally from the shaft, and wherein the electrosurgical electrode is rotatable relative to the housing and the shaft.
