An advanced system for electrocoagulation in neurosurgery.

The authors present a new, advanced system for electrocoagulation. In order to solve the problems connected with standard and bipolar EC machines available to date (i.e.: uneven and incostant coagulation; adhesion of tissue to the tips of the forceps, etc.), the Authors realized bipolar screened forceps with a well balanced current flow to avoid any heat dissipation. This new type of forceps are fed by a peculiar, two-step heating pattern, time dependent, that coagulates only the core of the clamped tissue.
