Laser used in Hemorrhoid Surgery.
How is laser used in hemorrhoid surgery?
Laser treatment for hemorrhoids is performed under local anesthesia only. The laser energy is transmitted directly to the hemorrhoidal nodules through radial optical fibers and eliminates them from the inside. This will help to protect the mucosal and sphincteric structures with great precision. The laser energy is used to cut off the blood supply that nourishes the abnormal growth. The laser energy induces the destruction of the venous epithelium and eliminates the hemorrhoids at the same time through the contraction effect.
What is the difference between laser hemorrhoid surgery and traditional surgery?
The advantage of using lasers compared to traditional surgery is that the fibrotic reconstruction will produce new connective tissue, ensuring the adhesion of the mucosa to the underlying tissue. This can also prevent the occurrence or recurrence of prolapse.
why choose 1470nm?
Lasers with a wavelength of 1470nm are more easily absorbed by water than lasers with a wavelength of 980nm, with an absorption rate 40 times higher.
Lasers with a wavelength of 1470nm are very suitable for tissue cutting. Due to the water absorption of 1470nm and the special biostimulation effect, 1470nm lasers can achieve precise cutting and can coagulate soft tissue well. Due to this unique tissue absorption effect, the laser can complete the surgery at a relatively low energy, thereby reducing thermal trauma and improving healing effects.
