An elongated, rigid implement (200) having a sharp distal end (202) is insertable into a solid mass within the body of a living being through a puncture site in the solid mass created by the sharp distal end. An elongated sleeve, which engages the elongated, rigid implement, is insertable into the solid mass. Fluid is provided to an expandable chamber (8) located in the vicinity of a distal end of the elongated sleeve through at least one channel (26) located within the elongated sleeve, to inflate the chamber while the chamber is positioned interstitially within the solid mass. A heating device (22, 24) located within the expandable chamber is powered, through at least one elongated conductor located within the elongated sleeve, to heat fluid within the chamber while the chamber is filled with the fluid and is positioned interstitially within the solid mass.

Un outil rigide allongé (200) ayant une extrémité distale tranchante (202) est introduit dans une masse solide à l'intérieur du corps d'un être vivant par une incision pratiquée dans la masse solide au moyen de ladite extrémité distale tranchante. Un manchon allongé, dans lequel s'engage l'outil rigide allongé, est introduit dans la masse solide. Un fluide est fourni à une chambre expansible (8) située à proximité d'une extrémité distale du manchon allongé par l'intermédiaire d'au moins un conduit (26) incorporé dans le manchon allongé, afin de gonfler la chambre expansible, pendant que celle-ci est amenée à pénétrer dans la masse solide par des interstices. Un dispositif chauffant (22, 24) se trouvant dans la chambre expansible est alimenté par au moins conducteur allongé situé dans le manchon allongé, afin de chauffer le fluide se trouvant dans la chambre expansible, pendant que celle-ci est remplie avec ledit fluide et qu'elle est amenée à pénétrer dans la masse solide par des interstices.
