Laser Treatments of Anal Fistula
Anal Fistula is a condition which demands extensive care and specialized technique. While treating anal fistula, Surgeon has to face the difficulty in approaching abnormal tunnel and to destroy fistula tract without injuring the anal sphincter. a significant injury may cause life-long incontinence.
Better to deal the Anal Fistula with the help of laser surgery .
Under laser treatment, laser energy is delivered with the help of radial fiber into the anal fistula tract and it then thermally ablates the tract and closes off the abnormal pathway. The laser energy induces destruction of the fistula epithelium and simultaneous obliteration of the remaining fistula tract by a shrinkage effect. The epithelialized tissue is being destroyed in a controlled way and the fistula tract collapse to a very high degree. This also supports and accelerates the healing process.
Laser Treatments of Anal Fissure
All fissure refers to the chronic cut in the anal causing pain, discomfort, itching, and bleeding sometimes. If not treated in time, it may expand to large size and may interfere the hygiene of the patient.
Patient trying to avoid consulting doctors due to embarrassment may be seen facing problems in short-term and serious fissure digs under tunnel in long term. Patients usually have a good idea of anal fissure.Recognising it same on time and treating it may save the patients from prolonged consequences.
If anal fissures cases are recognised they can be cured with the simple medications and topical treatments. As time passes fissure injury may become chronic and extensive treatment is required.
In laser Treatments for fissure it takes 10 - 15 minutes to treat the patients with using simple anaesthesia. In 90% cases, pain gone instantly where as 10% cases may take weeks to recover completely depending upon the fissure injury. In most cases, we combine this treatment with laser ablation to the patient’s internal hemorrhoids blood supply. This will assure a healthy and normal anal canal and prevent the development of further complications down the road.
Laser Treatments of Piles/ Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids or piles are dilated lumps in the anus causing pain, discomfort, bleeding and repeated inflammatory attacks in the lower part.
Some of the piles cases can be treated with the help of medication, diet and life style changes. but in case of grade 2 to 3 haemorrhoids , surgical treatments are compulsory to treat it from the root.
Laser treatments is the minimal invasive technique with lesser pain and quick recovery.
In laser treatments of piles, Laser energy is delivered by radial fiber directly to hemorrhoidal nodes to obliterate from inside and this will help to preserve mucosa and sphincter structure to an extremely high precision. Laser energy is used to close off the blood supply nourishing the abnormal growth. The laser energy induces destruction of the venous epithelium and simultaneous obliteration of the hemorrhoidal pile by a shrinkage effect.
Laser Treatments of Pilonidal Cyst /Sinus
The traditional method of treating the Pilonidal Cyst may involve creating large wounds which may takes several weeks to heal. Be it Traditional method or new modalities, the purpose would be to recover the Pilonidal Cyst by removing the entire cyst walls & content causing chronic conditions.
To treat the Pilonidal Cyst, Endo laser treatments is used. In which, no additional incision or wound is made. Only existing opening is slightly enlarged to deliver laser energy to cauterise the cyst walls, ending up with tiny opening that requires minimal post-operative care. The whole process requires less than half hour and using local anesthesia or short anesthesia
Varicose Veins Laser Surgery
Laser Treatments of Varicose Veins
This is the most effective techniques to treat varicose and spider veins.
In Laser treatment - Varicose vein surgery has come a long way because of leading edge laser technology worldwide.
It involves sealing of the feeding varicose veins using heat delivered by a thin laser probe under GA/SA.A Strong burst of diode laser is inserted through probe into a vein which causes steam bubbles generation from boiling blood in lumen causing heat injury to vein wall ,leading to closure of vein The affected vein is painlessly destroyed and absorbed by the body. Procedure just takes few minutes and compression stocking is worn 4-6 weeks after treatment.
It is not only cosmetic procedure but significantly improve quality of life
