Traditionally, the argon laser has been used with suture lysis. The authors evaluate the krypton laser and define the parameters for the successful use of the laser with this procedure.
Five consecutive patients undergoing combined cataract and trabeculectomy surgery who were considered candidates for this procedure underwent krypton laser suture lysis. Three laser suture lysis contact lenses were used during this procedure. None of the patients underwent adjuvant chemotherapy in the form of either 5-fluorouracil or mitomycin-C.
All five patients were successfully treated with the krypton laser. In all cases, the 10-0 nylon sutures were cut. No complications were observed in any patients. The only side effect observed was occasional mild pain noted by the first few patients during the procedure. As the krypton laser settings were adjusted, this problem was corrected.
The krypton laser can be successfully used to cut 10-0 nylon sutures following trabeculectomy surgery.
传统上，氩激光一直用于缝线松解。作者评估了氪激光，并确定了在此手术中成功使用激光的参数。
连续5例接受白内障联合小梁切除术且被认为适合该手术的患者接受了氪激光缝线松解术。在此手术过程中使用了三种激光缝线松解接触镜。所有患者均未接受5-氟尿嘧啶或丝裂霉素C形式的辅助化疗。
所有5例患者均成功接受了氪激光治疗。在所有病例中，10-0尼龙缝线均被切断。所有患者均未观察到并发症。观察到的唯一副作用是最初几名患者在手术过程中偶尔出现轻度疼痛。随着氪激光参数的调整，该问题得到了纠正。
氪激光可成功用于小梁切除术后切断10-0尼龙缝线。
