Laser is a device that forms light into intense, narrow beams that may be used to cut or destroy tissue, such as cancer tissue. It may also be used to reduce lymphedema (swelling caused by a buildup of lymph fluid in tissue) after breast cancer surgery. Lasers are used in microsurgery, photodynamic therapy, and many other procedures to diagnose and treat disease. Cancer is a term for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without control and can invade nearby tissues. Cancer cells can also spread to other parts of the body through the blood and lymph systems. There are several main types of cancer. Carcinoma is a cancer that begins in the skin or in tissues that line or cover internal organs. Sarcoma is a cancer that begins in bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, blood vessels, or other connective or supportive tissue. Leukemia is a cancer that starts in blood-forming tissue such as the bone marrow, and causes large numbers of abnormal blood cells to be produced and enter the blood. Lymphoma and multiple myeloma are cancers that begin in the cells of the immune system. Central nervous system cancers are cancers that begin in the tissues of the brain and spinal cord. Also called malignancy.
Preview- It`s been discovered that, METHODS Retrospective cost-identification analysis was performed by comparing the billing records of patients who underwent surgical laser treatment for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis in the operating room to the costs and charges for patients who underwent similar procedures with the in-office PDL. Analysis is a process in which anything complex is separated into simple or less complex parts. Retrospective, looking back at events that have already taken place.
- As an example, hemostasis was judged to be superior to experiences with the CO2 laser. In this pilot study, performing en bloc laryngeal cancer resection procedures was facilitated by use of the thulium laser. Laryngeal, having to do with the larynx. Pilot study is the initial study examining a new method or treatment. Laryngeal cancer, cancer that forms in tissues of the larynx (area of the throat that contains the vocal cords and is used for breathing, swallowing, and talking). Most laryngeal cancers are squamous cell carcinomas (cancer that begins in flat cells lining the larynx). Resection, surgery to remove tissue or part or all of an organ.
- It would appear apparant that, SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Like the CO2 laser, the diode laser can be used for soft tissue surgery without extensive experience in the field of oral surgical.

An operation. Soft tissue, refers to muscle, fat, fibrous tissue, blood vessels, or other supporting tissue of the body. Oral, by or having to do with the mouth.
