Traumatology and Orthopedics

The use of Fiberlase S in traumatology increases treatment efficiency, reduces the probability of complications, lowers painful sensations of the patient, the time of his disability and improve the quality of life. FiberLase S is based on a fiber laser with a wavelength of 1.55 microns and a diode laser with a wavelength of 0.97 microns. The laser radiation is delivered by IPG Surgical Fiber.

Applications:

- osteoarthritis;
- gonoarthritis;
- Reconstruction of damaged articular cartilage surfaces;
- Reconstruction of damaged ligaments and joints;
- synovitis;
- acute hematogenous osteomyelitis;
- primary chronic osteomyelitis (Garre and Brode type);
- all forms of chronic osteomyelitis without the presence of sequesters;
- all types of chronic osteomyelitis with sequesters as preparation for radical sequesterectomy or trough bone resection surgery;
- contact osteomyelitis against the background of diabetes mellitus, obliterating atherosclerosis of lower extremities;
- Bone and bone-articular panariculations;

Treatment of cartilage tissues:

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative-dystrophic joint disease caused by cartilage damage to the articular surfaces. Reconstructive arthroscopic operations on knee joints are performed both with laser radiation with a wavelength of 1.56 μm, and in combination with 0.97 μm. The coagulating properties of laser radiation allow arthroscopic laser plastic surgery of ligaments and menisci, removal of osteophytes and smoothing of articular surfaces. In addition, low-power laser radiation through a photothermic mechanism of action can initiate the process of regeneration of the damaged articular surface.

Treatment of osteomyelitis:

High power of radiation with a wavelength of 0.97 μm (up to 30 W) at the output of a fiber made it possible to create highly effective techniques for the treatment of osteomyelitis, non-unionized fractures and other similar diseases based on bone perforation by laser radiation. According to this method, several holes are perforated in the bone tissue through the skin and muscles in the inflammation zone using laser irradiation. Without removing the fiber, thermotherapy of the medullary canal is performed at a reduced power. No additional incisions or drainage of soft tissue or the medullary canal are made.

Advantages:

- stimulation of regenerative processes;
- restoration of the integrity of hyaline cartilage of articular surfaces in degenerative diseases and injuries;
- restoration of partially damaged ligaments and menisci;
- reduction of pain syndrome and improvement of functional capabilities;
- rapid normalization of intraosseous pressure and bone mineral component in osteomyelitis;
- activation of pathogenic flora death due to the powerful sanitizing effect on bone marrow and surrounding tissues
- Improvement of microcirculation in the center of inflammation;
- absence of deep lesions of soft tissues and bones;
- treatment as part of a day hospital.
