There is widespread misconception that the unique physical properties of the carbon dioxide (CO2) laser essentially guarantee favorable results. In reality, the margin between excellence and mediocrity is very narrow. Unless sophisticated strategies are employed to restrict lateral heat conduction during photovaporization, the laser will produce the same kind of conduction burn as a hot cautery. This article examines the rationale for the use of the CO2 laser and provides an overview of six physical and six surgical principles governing expertise with the CO2 laser in the lower genital tract.
有一种普遍的误解，认为二氧化碳（CO2）激光独特的物理特性基本上能保证取得良好的效果。实际上，卓越与平庸之间的差距非常小。除非采用复杂的策略来限制光汽化过程中的侧向热传导，否则激光会产生与热灼器相同类型的传导性烧伤。本文探讨了使用CO2激光的基本原理，并概述了在下生殖道使用CO2激光的六项物理原理和六项手术原则。
