Laser endosurgery in urology

A holmium laser was delivered to Tyumen doctors at the end of June. The new equipment allows doctors to perform major urological surgeries with minimal trauma and blood loss. Furthermore, recovery time, using laser technology, is reduced to 1-2 days. The innovative laser is used for kidney stone lithotripsy, laser enucleation of the prostate, laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, prostate cancer localization, and other complex procedures. For example, to remove a prostate adenoma, the surgeon inserts an instrument through the urethra into the prostate gland and uses a coagulator loop to cut away the tumor. A special instrument then crushes the adenoma within the bladder and rinses it out painlessly. A similar operation has been performed by urologists in Sevastopol since 2010, using an Eleps rotary shaver [http://eleps.ru/katalog/artroskopiya-artrooborudovanie/amd_150_2_sheyver_rotatsionnyy_shr_01_eleps_s_rukoyatkoy_ro_2_dlya_artroskopii/] for morcellation, a Full HD endovideo camera [http://eleps.ru/katalog/artroskopiya-artrooborudovanie/evk_003_81_videokamera_endoskopicheskaya_evk_eleps_full_hd/] for the highest quality visualization of the surgical field, and Eleps cystoscopes [http://eleps.ru/katalog/gistero_tsistoskopy_/] .
