Thulium Fiber Laser–Assisted Endoureterotomy for Treatment of Complete Obliterative Uretero‐Ileal Conduit Anastomotic Stricture in a Patient With Ureteral Duplication: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Urology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
One of the known complications of radical cystectomy with urinary diversion is the development of a benign ureteroenteric anastomotic stricture (UES), which can lead to hydronephrosis and renal dysfunction. Holmium:YAG lasers are commonly used for endoscopic management of these UES.

Laser Versus Cold Steel Dissection Tonsillectomy in Recurrent Acute Tonsillitis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, Volume 57, Issue 8, Page 645-657, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives Severe recurrent acute tonsillitis (RAT) is commonly treated by removing the palatine tonsils, namely tonsillectomy (TE). Laser TE has been suggested as an alternative to cold steel dissection, although its efficacy and safety for the surgical treatment of RAT remain unclear.

Eu(II)‐Based Quaternary Chalcogenides with Noncentrosymmetric Structures Stabilized by Site Disorder of d10 Metal Cations

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, Volume 651, Issue 9, June 24, 2025.
A noncentrosymmetric metal‐chalcogenide structure has been stabilized by two different types of site disorder, as represented by M = Ag versus M = Cu in the graphic. Quaternary metal‐chalcogenides combining rare‐earth cations with late transition metal cations are attracting growing attention for their optical properties, such as for solar energy ...

Comparing GreenLight PVP and HoLEP beyond 5 years: A systematic review of long‐term functional outcomes and reoperation rates

open access: yesBJUI Compass, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to compare long‐term (≥ 5 years) functional outcomes and reoperation rates following holmium laser enucleation of prostate (HoLEP) vs GreenLight photoselective vaporisation of prostate (GLPVP). Methods MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane databases were searched from inception to December 2023.

Clinical Efficacy and Outcomes of Electro‐Pneumatic Intracorporeal Lithotripsy in the Management of Sialolithiasis

open access: yesOTO Open, Volume 9, Issue 1, January-March 2025.
Abstract Objective This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of electro‐pneumatic intracorporeal lithotripsy for the treatment of salivary gland stones. Study Design A prospective cohort study of patients diagnosed with obstructive salivary gland syndrome, where basket‐assisted sialendoscopy alone failed to remove the calculi.

Fluorescence‐Guided Laser Lithotripsy: First Experience From a Clinical Study With Automatic Blocking of the Treatment Laser Beam

open access: yesTranslational Biophotonics, Volume 6, Issue 1-2, December 2024.
The autofluorescence of urinary stones can be used for stone detection during laser lithotripsy. A system that automatically blocks the treatment laser in the event of incorrect fiber placement was tested in a clinical setting. ABSTRACT For several years, research has been conducted into fluorescence‐controlled laser lithotripsy, with the aim of ...

Morphology Characterization and Refractive Index Analysis of Subsurface Ultrashort‐Pulsed Laser Modifications in ZnS

open access: yesphysica status solidi (a), Volume 221, Issue 17, September 2024.
Ultrashort pulsed laser‐induced modifications in the bulk of multicrystalline ZnS are realized and characterized. Their cross‐sectional morphology and refractive index profiles are found to highly depend on the laser setup parameters. Such parametric insight is crucial for realizing compact subsurface 3D geometries for photonic applications.
