Orthopedics, 1993
Abstract This relatively new form of laser energy, with its powerful and precise ability to ablate the dense tissues of the musculoskeletal system as well as its transmissibility in fiberoptic cables and a fluid medium, makes this an ideal tool for use in orthopedic surgery.

Current Urology Reports, 2001
Holmium laser prostatectomy has evolved in the last decade to reproduce the short- and long-term results of both transurethral and open prostatectomy. This article discusses our surgical approach at the Methodist Hospital of Indiana as well as offers a review of the literature of holmium prostatectomy.

Trigonal interactions in holmium
Physical Review B, 1995The low-temperature magnetic structure of Ho has been studied using a combination of neutron-scattering and mean-field calculations. Re-examination of the cone and one-spin-slip phases has shown that the structures are distorted by interactions of trigonal symmetry, similar to those recently hypothesized for Er.

BJU International, 2003
There are three very different topics presented in this section. The authors from Tauranga, New Zealand, who write about holmium laser prostatectomy, have the largest series in the world and were the instigators of this type of treatment for BPH. They address the pros and cons of treating prostatic enlargement in this way and update the reader on the ...

Journal of Clinical Laser Medicine & Surgery, 1998
To review the physics related to the holmium laser, its laser-tissue interactions, and its application to the treatment of urological diseases.The holmium: YAG laser is a solid-state, pulsed laser that emits light at 2100 nm. It combines the qualities of the carbon dioxide and neodymium:YAG lasers providing both tissue cutting and coagulation in a ...

Holmium Laser Canaliculoplasty
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1996Thirty canaliculi of 18 patients with complete or nearly complete canalicular obstruction were subjected to laser canaliculoplasty as a substitute for the standard Jones-type bypass conduct. Etiologies for the obstruction included congenital lacrimal system atresia, eyelid trauma, scarring following previous lacrimal surgery, and chronic inflammatory ...

Intrarenal use of the holmium laser
Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 1997We investigated the safety, effectiveness, and techniques of the holmium (Ho:YAG) laser intrarenally. Data are presented on 52 patients who were treated with the Ho:YAG laser intrarenally for urinary calculi or neoplasms.The Ho:YAG laser has a wavelength of 2,100 nm, which is delivered in pulsed fashion via a small flexible quartz fiber (365 microns ...

Field dependence of the hyperfine splitting of holmium in holmium hydroxide
Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 1989The hyperfine splitting of 165Ho in holmium hydroxide has been studied by spin-echo NMR at liquid-helium temperatures in fields up to 8 T. The behaviour of the dipolar splitting in fields below 0.5 T confirms that the hyperfine parameters are not thermally averaged and that the NMR signals arise solely from ions in the electronic ground state.

Holmium laser for stone management
World Journal of Urology, 2007The efficiency and safety profile of the holmium laser has made this tool a versatile multi-purpose instrument for use in the endoscopic treatment of a wide variety of urologic disorders, in particular urinary calculi. Herein we review holmium laser physics, current endourologic laser lithotripsy applications, and the performance of new low power ...
