Laser Therapy for Congenital Laryngeal Stenosis

Laryngeal Stenosis is a constriction of the airway that can affect the supraglottis, glottis, and/or subglottis. It can be congenital or acquired. It is characterized by a circumferential or partial constriction of the endolaryngeal airway, which can be congenital or acquired.

In most cases, laryngomalacia in infants is not a serious condition; they may feed and develop despite their loud breathing.

Laryngomalacia in these babies will go away without surgery by the time they are 18 to 20 months old. Although surgery-based therapy is not indicated, laser treatment is.

For that specific reason, several laser devices are being employed with such issues but not all of them proved to be well-functioning and efficient enough.

However, the FDA Portable Surgery Diode Laser System LASER-1.2B has proven to be quite helpful in the treatment of such a condition.

The tissue components haemoglobin and melanin interact more with the blue laser light even at reduced power. Accordingly, this allows LASER-1.2B to perform better and softer airway-opening laser surgeries to improve your breathing.

Further, the device can be appropriate for all Congenital medical applications including Congenital tumor removals because of its improved cutting performance.

The LASER-1.2B is also highly recommended by doctors as it provides excellent alignment and precise sighting during surgery. Its green targeting laser is to thank for this. To guarantee better results, the device is supported with a fibre guide laser.

To begin with, it is suitable for a variety of endoscopic applications. Second, these unique fibres are sterilisable, preventing cross-infection and ensuring a clean and bloodless operational region.

That actually reduces the thermal damage and its peculiar interaction with haemoglobin.

Furthermore, the total lack of water absorption helps to significantly prevent the warming of the surrounding tissues. This should add to the effectiveness of the laser treatment.

Due to all these features and more, the LASER-1.2 B guarantees increased cutting effectiveness, much higher than the one obtained with infrared lasers.

Laser uses have grown fast since their introduction since they have shown to be a beneficial supplement to Congenital Laryngeal Stenosis operations.

The benefits of laser therapy are discussed in this article, as well as the usefulness of the LASER-1.2B as a contemporary surgical laser device in the treatment of Congenital Larynx Stenosis.
