A report is given on an experimental study in 20 dogs designed to compare the use of the CO2 laser beam as a cutting instrument in resection of the kidney parenchyma, with the simple scalpel and the cutting diathermy current. It was found that the laser can be used with impunity. It shortens the time of operation by facilitating hemostasis, diminishes blood loss, and does not interfere with the final kidney function. The damage to the kidney parenchyma compares favorably with the produced by the other instruments.
本文报道了一项针对20只犬的实验研究，旨在比较二氧化碳激光束作为切割工具在肾实质切除术中的应用与单纯手术刀及切割电凝电流的使用情况。结果发现，激光可以安全使用。它通过促进止血缩短了手术时间，减少了失血量，并且不影响最终的肾功能。对肾实质造成的损伤与其他器械相比具有优势。
