Book Description
The Nd:YAG laser has finally become the multidisciplinary and muitispeciaity tool of the 1980s. Primarily developed for gastrointestinal applications for controlling bleeding, at present it is also used for endoscopic treatment of gastrointestinal tumors, endobronchial cancer, and bladder and gynecological lesions and finding applications in otorhinolaryngology and neurosurgery. De velopment of laser scalpels and focusing head-pieces has now allowed the Nd:YAG laser to be used for open surgical procedures in general and plastic surgery, head and neck surgery, urology, gynecology, dermatology, and neu rosurgery. The rapid development in ceramic technology has led to contact surgery allowing physicians a choice of excision, vaporization, coagulation, incision, or combinations thereof by easily changing probes rather than having to select new laser wavelengths. This technology is rapidly replacing the carbon dioxide laser which currently has no adequate flexible waveguide for fiberoptic en doscopy, cannot be used in a water medium (e.g., bladder), and has poor coagulation properties when compared to the Nd:YAG laser. Future developments may see the Nd:YAG laser even replacing electro cautery in the operating room due to its greater safety and efficacy. Local hyperthermia (laserthermia) with computer control, photodynamic therapy, and ophthalmic applications make the Nd:YAG laser the most exciting tech nological advancement in medicine and surgery for the 1980s.

Book Description
A synopsis of the use of lasers in gynecology is presented in this book; it is supported by more than 10 years of experience and backed up by studies inthe fields of experimental surgery, technical medicine and clinical gynecology. The authors show how laser-assisted preparation hasbroadened the spectrum of operative possibilities in gynecology. Major points of attention are experimental surgery and basic research, details of application with respect to specific indications, and future potential. Furthermore, the clear definition of the possibilities and limitations of laser technology puts an end to the highly stylized view of a patent wonder divorced from general operative standards. Thereis no doubt that users of laser technology stand on the threshold of a promising development and yet, despite the present elegant applications, thefirst steps to maturity are only now being taken.

Book Description
Ophthalmic plastic surgery continues to evolve more towards the aesthetic concerns of our patients. In their lectures the internationally well-known oculoplastic surgeons George B. Bartley, Brian S. Biesman, Michael A. Callahan, James C. Fleming, Robert A. Goldberg, Barrett G. Haik, Alan A. McNab and Russell W. Neuhaus gave an update on aesthetic approaches to traditional functional problems (such as nonincisional dacryocystorhinostomies and the deep lateral wall decompression for Graves orbitopathy), as well as the latest information regarding numerous cosmetic procedures, including laser resurfacing, endoscopic brow lifts and laser-assisted blepharoplasty. The round table discussions were particularly informative and enlightening and have therefore been included in this book.

Book Description
Written by pioneers in the field, Operative Gynecologic Endoscopy comprehensively covers both the theory and practice of basic to advanced endoscopic procedures and techniques, including operative laparoscopy, laser laparoscopy, operative hysteroscopy, and laser hysteroscopy. This clinically oriented text presents a wide range of endoscopic approaches to pelvic pathologies, including operative laparoscopic resection of ectopic pregnancy, new treatments of pelvic inflammatory diseases, anesthesia pertinent to endoscopy, and laser urologic surgery appropriate to gynecology. The importance of visually documenting operative endoscopic procedures with photographic and video imaging techniques is emphasized. The final chapters discuss medico-legal aspects, the economic impact of the endoscopic approach compared to traditional procedures, future clinical prospects for the field, and credentialing.
