[The laser therapy of the regenerative tissue processes in long-term nonhealing postoperative wound dehiscence]

Clinical studies were performed in 97 complicated operative wounds with partial dehiscences, involving the skin and the subcutaneous connective tissue, and deeper ones reaching the fascia, after gynecological abdominal operations. All complicated operative wounds before prescription of laser therapy were locally treated, without achieving their healing for 10 to 60 days with antibiotic proteolytic ferments, flagyl, Vishnevski's paste and antiseptic dressings. As a result of helium-neon laser therapy with power density 90 mW/cm2 and 70 mW/cm2 healing of these complicated operative wounds occurred in 5 to 18 days (after 5 to 18 irradiations). The studies showed that laser therapy dose (power density) of 90 mW/cm2 stimulated more effectively the tissue reparatory processes at exposure time of 1.5 min per field.
