Abstract
A cryosurgical instrument features a cryogen in liquid or liquid-gaseous (mist) form being supplied by a feeding lumen into the internal space of a cryotip at the distal end of the cryosurgical instrument. The distal section of the feeding lumen is helically coiled, so that an outer diameter of the helically coiled distal section fits an inner diameter of a cylindrical envelope of said cryotip, and said helically coiled distal section and said cylindrical envelope are in thermal contact.
