The Cavitron Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator is a unique modality for precise tissue removal which results in increased visibility, reduced bleeding, and shorter operating time when dealing with vascular lesions or organs. Herein, we present our experience in a dog laboratory as well as in a clinical setting with this new instrument. The mechanism of action, proper surgical technique required, and further application in urologic surgery are discussed.
