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

Thermal model for optimization of vascular laser tissue soldering
AbstractLaser tissue soldering (LTS) is a promising technique for tissue fusion based on a heat‐denaturation process of proteins. Thermal damage of the fused tissue during the laser procedure has always been an important and challenging problem. Particularly in LTS of arterial blood vessels strong heating of the endothelium should be avoided to ...

Microsurgical anastomosis of sperm duct by laser tissue soldering
Connection of small vessels is usually done by suturing which is very cumbersome. Laser tissue soldering can circumvent that obstacle if a handy procedure can be defined. Our principle approach consists of a bioresorbable hollow stent with an expected degradation time of 3 weeks in combination with laser soldering.

Nanothermometry‐Enabled Intelligent Laser Tissue Soldering
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 ...

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