Bipolar Bimanual Diathermy-Reply
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1981In Reply. —First, from a theoretical viewpoint, we maintain that it is possible that noninsulated probes used in the bimanual technique pass undesired and possibly dangerous currents through the eye. The eye is, unfortunately, not the theoretical homogenous body where electrical energy is decreased to the third power of the distance between ...

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1981
To the Editor. —In an article in theArchives(1981;99:494-497), Parel et al alleged that bipolar bimanual diathermy was potentially unsafe. While no concerned clinician can fault a search for safety, I believe that the authors had no case report of damage caused by this method and had performed no animal experimentation either with bipolar bimanual ...

Self-irrigating bipolar diathermy forceps
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1972✓ A method for providing continuous saline drip in bipolar diathermy is described, which uses stainless steel tubing fixed to one blade of a standard bipolar forceps and connected to the irrigating line.

Bipolar diathermy forceps with automatic irrigation
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1985✓ A method for providing a saline drip during bipolar diathermy is described. Stainless steel tubing is incorporated in both blades of standard bipolar forceps and connected to the irrigating line. Irrigation is started when the forceps are closed and is stopped when they are open.

Radiofrequency Bipolar Submucosal Diathermy of the Inferior Turbinates
American Journal of Rhinology, 1999Fifty nonatopic patients with chronic hypertrophic rhinitis and suffering from chronic nasal obstruction due to hypertrophied inferior turbinates were subjected to bipolar submucosal diathermy using a radio frequency unit and a bipolar turbinate probe.

A Bipolar Coaxial Microprobe for Safe Transvitreal Diathermy
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1981We present a new 22-gauge transvitreal bipolar diathermy microprobe. With the use of the coaxial principle, the current flows only at the probe's end surfaces. Because of its small size and end-on coagulation effect, and when used in conjunction with a low-frequency diathermy unit, the probe can be used safely on vessels lying directly on the retinal ...
