Laparoscopic Laser Excision of Endometriosis

Presented by Daniel Martin, MD

The CO2 laser was first used in Gynecology over 20 years ago. From the beginning it proved to be a powerful instrument for treating a number of diseases using the laparoscopic approach. Advances in technical design and
clinical technique have improved precision and minimized thermal damage. These make it possible to treat otherwise inoperable endometriosis patients and to shorten surgical interventions. Recent studies show that this leads to
less adhesion formation and a high success rate. Colposcopic interventions can also be performed swiftly and precisely in a hospital or office setting.

Don't be fooled, it may be keyhole, but its still really painful. :(

But the healing time isnt as long..

It seems to be a great technique because it looks non invasive and that is more comfortable to the patient not to mention easier for the physician. At Symposier site there is more information on Endometriosis for physicians interested on it.
