    The new Laser Rod surgical tool offers bloodless incisions in urological procedures. This ceramic Nd-YAG laser device allows tactile feedback, minimizing damage to surrounding tissues during surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Technology
    • Laser Medicine

    Context:

    • The development of innovative surgical tools is crucial for improving patient outcomes.
    • Minimally invasive techniques are increasingly preferred in urological surgery.
    • The need for precise tissue cutting with reduced collateral damage is a constant challenge.

    Purpose:

    • To present the clinical application of the novel
    • Laser Rod
    • surgical tool in various urological procedures.

    Summary:

    • The Laser Rod, a ceramic device utilizing a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd-YAG) laser, was employed in nephrolithotomy, prostatectomy, urethroplasty, and other surgeries.
    • This tool enables surgeons to perform incisions with both laser precision and tactile feedback, sensing tissue resistance.
