Summary

Assess the safety, feasibility, and patient tolerability of circumferential radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to the anal canal for patients with anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN). Patients will have AIN with high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and the RFA will be applied using the Barrx™ Ablation System.

Conditions

  • Anal Intraepithelial Neoplasia (AIN)
  • High-grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions (HSIL)

Interventions

DEVICE

Radiofrequency Ablation (Barrx™)

Anal canal RFA is performed to the full anal canal, 3 cm above the dentate line to the anocutaneous line proximal to the verge. The procedure entails Barrx60 ablation device, introducing the device into the anus through the anoscope, placing the electrode surface in contact with the target tissue and delivering 3 bursts of energy in rapid succession at an energy density setting of 12 J/cm2.
