  • Title: [The holmium laser in the treatment of bladder cancer patients].
    Author: Mazo EB, Chepurov AK.
    Journal: Urol Nefrol (Mosk); 1996; (4):34-5. PubMed ID: 8928348.
    Abstract:
    37 patients with cancer of the urinary bladder have undergone surgery and radiation with Ho-YAG laser. In 11 patients transurethral resection was followed by bladder wall ablation by impulse laser radiation (0.5-1.0 W, 3-10 Hz). Pilot results were promising: good coagulation effects, absence of secondary hemorrhage and infectious-inflammatory complications due to shorter postoperative drainage of the bladder and safety of ablation effect in exposure of the tumor base.
