The efficiency of various types of lasers used in the surgical treatment of patients with tuberculosis and other diseases of the lungs and pleura was evaluated. Surgical (CO2 and YAG) and therapeutic lasers (helium-neon, ultra-violet and semiconductive) were used. The findings demonstrated that use of various lasers in lung surgery enables one to improve preoperative management, reduce the volume and traumatism of surgical interventions, decrease the number of postoperative complications and increase the effectiveness of surgical treatment of patients with tuberculosis and other diseases of the lungs and pleura.
评估了用于肺结核及其他肺和胸膜疾病患者手术治疗的各类激光的效率。使用了外科手术激光（二氧化碳激光和钇铝石榴石激光）以及治疗性激光（氦氖激光、紫外线激光和半导体激光）。研究结果表明，在肺部手术中使用各类激光能够改善术前管理，减少手术干预的规模和创伤，降低术后并发症的数量，并提高肺结核及其他肺和胸膜疾病患者手术治疗的效果。
