    Area of Science:

    • Minimally Invasive Surgery
    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Technology

    Background:

    • The application of laser technology in biliary surgery remains limited.
    • Current applications include gallbladder extirpation, bladder bed treatment, choledochotomy, and papillosphincterotomy.

    Observation:

    • A 65-year-old female patient underwent laser papillosphincterotomy, marking the first such case in the country.
    • This procedure was performed to address biliary obstruction or related conditions.

    Findings:

    • Laser papillosphincterotomy demonstrated adequate hemostasis (bleeding control).
    • The technique resulted in the absence of reactive edema (swelling).
    • Early re-establishment of bile flow and adhesion of incision edges were observed.

    Implications:

    • Laser technology offers potential benefits for specific biliary surgical interventions.
    • This case highlights the feasibility and advantages of laser papillosphincterotomy.
    • Further research may expand the role of lasers in advanced biliary surgery.
