Laser vaporisation of a 30gr. prostate.
Procedure done by Prof. Dr. Ali Erol/ Istanbul-Turkey with Biolitec EVOLVE Laser and new TWISTER Fiber
In combination with the EVOLVE Laser Series
the TWISTER achieves ablation rates of 2-3
grams and reduces the operating time by 50%
or more compared to present side fibers.
Clinical tests have proven that a 40-50 gram
prostate can be treated in less than 15 minutes
while keeping the well known hemostasis
characteristics of the EVOLVE Laser System
Main features:
• Working in contact mode
• Long-lasting fiber without fiber degradation
• Direct and high energy delivery
• Smooth intrasurgical surface of the vaporized area
• Compatible with the EVOLVE Laser Series
Benefits
• Higher ablation rates than current side fiber and
radiofrequency methods
• Reduced laser and procedure time - up to 50%
• No fiber tip cleaning required during the procedure
to maintain fiber integrity
• No potential side effects towards the end of the
procedure due to fiber degradation
• Increased control of the fiber tip
• Enhanced visibility
• Permits excellent treatment of the top of the prostate.
• Urologists can utilize traditional TUR type movements
effectively with a laser
