Laser tissue soldering of the gastrointestinal tract: A systematic review [PDF]

Heliyon, 2023
Background: Laser Tissue Soldering (LTS) is a promising tissue bonding technique in which a solder is applied between the tissues and then irradiated by laser, causing it to solidify and form links with the tissue.

Robot-assisted laser tissue soldering system. [PDF]

Biomed Opt Express, 2018
Fast and reliable incision closure is critical in any surgical intervention. Common solutions are sutures and clips or adhesives, but they all present difficulties. These difficulties are especially pronounced in classical and robot-assisted minimally-invasive interventions.

Terahertz three-dimensional monitoring of nanoparticle-assisted laser tissue soldering. [PDF]

Biomed Opt Express, 2020
In view of minimally-invasive clinical interventions, laser tissue soldering assisted by plasmonic nanoparticles is emerging as an appealing concept in surgical medicine, holding the promise of surgeries without sutures. Rigorous monitoring of the plasmonically-heated solder and the underlying tissue is crucial for optimizing the soldering bonding ...

Robotic Laser Tissue Soldering for Atraumatic Soft Tissue Fusion Guided by Fluorescent Nanothermometry. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
AbstractMinimally invasive surgical techniques, including endoscopic and robotic procedures, continue to revolutionize patient care, for their ability to minimize surgical trauma, thus promoting faster recovery and reduced hospital stays. Yet, the suturing of soft tissues ensuring damage‐free tissue bonding during these procedures remains challenging ...

Nanothermometry‐Enabled Intelligent Laser Tissue Soldering

Small Methods, 2023
Abstract While often life‐saving, surgical resectioning of diseased tissues puts patients at risk for post‐operative complications. Sutures and staples are well‐accepted and routinely used to reconnect tissues, however, their mechanical mismatch with biological soft tissue and invasiveness contribute to wound healing complications ...

Evaluation of Laser Tissue Welding and Laser-Tissue Soldering for Mucosal and Vascular Repair.

Ann Maxillofac Surg, 2018
Laser tissue bonding (LTB) is believed to have certain advantages over conventional sutures such as fluid-tight closure and minimal scarring and fibrosis.The aim of the present study was to evaluate the bond strength of laser tissue welding and laser tissue soldering in mucosal and vascular repair.A total of 85 samples of bovine oral mucosa and 85 ...

Spatiotemporal modeling of laser tissue soldering using photothermal nanocomposites. [PDF]

Lasers Surg Med, 2018
ObjectiveLaser tissue soldering using photothermal solders is a technology that facilitates rapid sealing using heat‐induced changes in the tissue and the solder material. The solder material is made of gold nanorods embedded in a protein matrix patch that can be placed over the tissue rupture site and heated with a laser.
