The authors present their experience with the 1.32 mum Nd:YAG laser in neurosurgical procedures. In a first step, they conducted experiments on rat cortex. The thermic data and histologic results confirmed that the 1.32 Nd:YAG laser has physical properties quite close to the CO2 laser. Furthermore, the fact that the 1.32 mum wavelength can be conducted through optic fibers makes it well adapted to neurosurgery. The authors present experimental data (50 rats) and comment on their surgical experience with such a wavelength (70 patients). In the future, this laser should see its indications broadened in conventional neurosurgical procedures as well as in endoscopic and stereotactic neurosurgery.
作者介绍了他们在神经外科手术中使用1.32微米钕:钇铝石榴石激光的经验。第一步，他们在大鼠皮层上进行了实验。热学数据和组织学结果证实，1.32钕:钇铝石榴石激光的物理特性与二氧化碳激光非常接近。此外，1.32微米波长可通过光纤传导这一事实使其非常适合神经外科手术。作者展示了实验数据（50只大鼠）并对他们使用这种波长的手术经验（70例患者）进行了评论。未来，这种激光在传统神经外科手术以及内镜和立体定向神经外科手术中的应用范围应该会扩大。
