A device for carrying out hyperthermia in a mammalian uterine cavity or body cavities or ducts. It comprises an elongate, rigid distal section (3) and a flexible and elastic bladder (9) encompassing the distal section, which is intended to be inserted in the uterine. Further, comprising means (27) for the supply of a heat transmitting fluid for the expansion of the bladder heating means (29), an axially displaceable tube (21, 35) and means (15, 45) for determining the axial position of the distal end (23, 51) of the displaceable tube so that the length of the bladder matches the depth of the cavity subject to treatment. Also comprising means (13, 47) for locking the tube with its distal end in such matching position. The invention also includes methods of thermal treatment a mammalian uterine cavity.
L'invention concerne un dispositif provoquant une hyperthermie dans une cavité utérine mammalienne ou des cavités ou conduits corporels. Ledit dispositif comprend une partie distale (3) allongée, rigide et une vessie (9) flexible et élastique qui entoure la partie distale à insérer dans l'utérus; ainsi qu'un dispositif (27) d'alimentation d'un fluide propageant la chaleur destinée à dilater le dispositif (29) chauffant la vessie; un tube (21, 35) amovible axialement; et un dispositif (15, 45) pour déterminer la position axiale de l'extrémité distale (23, 51) du tube amovible, de manière à ce que la vessie corresponde à la profondeur de la cavité à traiter. Ladite invention comprend aussi un dispositif (13, 47) de blocage dudit tube avec son extrémité distale dans une position adéquate, et porte en outre sur des procédés de traitement thermique de la cavité utérine mammalienne.
