Abstract

The spherical welded tip end of a cryosurgical probe is prevented from separating and projecting from the remainder of the probe tip due to fluid pressure in the tip by a lanyard, one end of which is welded to the tip end and the other end of which is secured to a point on the main body of the probe away from the probe tip.
