Diode laser for paediatric airway procedures: a useful tool

Abstract: Diode laser is a good tool for several paediatric laryngeal pathologies. The ability to guide the laser light using the flexible glass fibre directly onto the area requiring vapourisation enables very precise treatment.

“…Diode (gallium-arsenide) 980-nm laser is the most important alternative (6). Main advantages of diode laser over CO 2 laser include the following: it provides better hemostasis (7), it is cheaper, it is easier to transport and implement (8), cell proliferation and fibroblast activity increase and tissue healing is faster (9), using a thin fiber cable allows the surgeon to hold it like a pencil, as well as angling the flexible feature, and exposing the larynx to areas that are difficult to reach, especially in the CO 2 laser.

“…TLM shows good oncologic and survival results, as well as open surgery and RT. As another important advantage of TLM, it presents the possibility of laser, open partial surgery, or RT in patients with local recurrence or second primary tumor in the head and neck region (6,8,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)).…”

“…laser diodo é conduzido por uma fibra óptica que pode ser manipulada através de uma sonda pelo cirurgião, sua forma de aplicação pode ser através do contato direto com o tecido ou a uma distância de poucos milímetros deste. Tais características, determinam maior precisão na técnica cirúrgica12,14 .Durante a interação do laser com o tecido alvo, a energia do laser é absorvida sob a forma de calor, determinando um aumento da temperatura local. Diferentes efeitos podem ser produzidos no tecido, dependendo do valor, duração e pico de temperatura alcançada.…”
