Photothermal effects of laser tissue soldering

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 1999
Low-strength anastomoses and thermal damage of tissue are major concerns in laser tissue welding techniques where laser energy is used to induce thermal changes in the molecular structure of the tissues being joined, hence allowing them to bond together.

Albumin–genipin solder for laser tissue repair

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 2004
AbstractBackgroundLaser tissue soldering (LTS) is an alternative technique to suturing for tissue repair that avoids foreign body reaction and provides immediate sealing of the wound. One of the major drawbacks of LTS, however, is the weak tensile strength of the solder welds when compared to sutures.

Laser tissue soldering: Applications in the genitourinary system

Current Urology Reports, 2003
Within the past 25 years, lasers have transitioned from merely destructive or ablative tools to those with reconstructive uses. It has been shown that the application of laser thermal energy to tissue will result in welding of the approximated areas.

Optimal solder and power density for diode laser tissue soldering (LTS)

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 2001
AbstractBackground and ObjectiveLaser tissue soldering (LTS) using albumin and indocyanine green dye (ICG) is an effective technique utilized in various reconstructive surgical procedures. The purpose of this study was to describe in vivo and in vitro temperature profiles of an albumin‐based solder while varying ICG concentration and laser power ...

Free-electron laser tissue-soldering in vitro with an albumin solder

SPIE Proceedings, 2000
The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of using a free-electron laser (FEL) to photothermally coagulate an albumin solder for laser-assisted incision closure. A 50%(w/v) bovine serum albumin solder was used to repair an incision in bovine aorta.

Temperature‐controlled two‐wavelength laser soldering of tissues

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 2011
AbstractBackground and ObjectiveLaser tissue soldering is a method for bonding of incisions in tissues. A biological solder is spread over the cut, laser radiation heats the solder and the underlying cut edges and the incision is bonded. This method offers many advantages over conventional techniques (e.g., sutures).

Novel laser tissue-soldering technique for dural reconstruction

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2005
Object The goal of this study was to use a modified version of the CO2 laser—soldering system to develop a simple and reliable technique for the repair of dural defects after excision of brain tumors. Methods The authors used a CO2 fiber optic laser system that they had developed for heating, monitoring, and controlling tissue temperature in situ ...

Sutureless Laparoscopic Heminephrectomy Using Laser Tissue Soldering

Journal of Endourology, 2003
Widespread application of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy has been limited by the lack of a reliable means of attaining hemostasis. We describe laser tissue welding using human albumin as a solder to control bleeding and seal the collecting system during laparoscopic heminephrectomy in a porcine model.Laparoscopic left lower-pole heminephrectomy was ...

Solubility study of albumin solders for laser tissue-welding

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 1998
Current albumin solders for tissue-welding are soluble in physiological fluids, prior to laser irradiation. These solders are therefore subjected to mechanical alterations, which can weaken the solder-tissue repair. In this study, an albumin solder (laser activated) was developed with low solubility and with the ability to retain (partially) its ...
