A Technique for Ureteral Stump Ablation
Journal of Urology, 1988A total of 5 children underwent successful electrofulguration of a distal ectopic ureteral stump with reflux. Electrofulguration was performed endoscopically in 4 girls and in 1 boy the stump was ablated during an open operation. The procedure, which is simple and safe, obviates the potential nidus for recurrent infection.

Radiofrequency tumor ablation: principles and techniques
European Journal of Ultrasound, 2001Radiofrequency (RF) tumor ablation has been demonstrated as a reliable method for creating thermally induced coagulation necrosis using either a percutaneous approach with image-guidance or direct surgical placement of thin electrodes into tissues to be treated. Early clinical trials with this technology have studied the treatment of hepatic, cerebral,

Endometrial ablation: principles and technique.
Acta Europaea fertilitatis, 1990Uterine bleeding may be caused either by benign organic pathology as well as different dysfunctional conditions. Medical treatment with progestins, danazol or GnRH analogues is usually used as the first choice therapy. Where the symptoms persist, hysterectomy is generally proposed; it has been calculated that from 500,000 to 700,000 such operations are
