In vascular surgery, it is now very difficult to maintain the long-term patency after a conventional vascular anastomosis, especially for small-caliber vessels. A low-energy CO2 laser was experimentally employed to make a vascular anastomosis with only a few sutures. Subsequently, it could be confir

The therapeutic occlusion of retinal vessels is often helpful in treating various pathological conditions. We compared the combined effects of argon laser photocoagulation and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) released from temperature-sensitive liposomes with argon laser photocoagulation alone on occlusi
## Intestinal anastomosis was performed in 17 Wistar rats via tissue welding by the low-energy COz laser. The postoperative course in the animals studied was uneventful. The integrity of the anastomosis w d S investigated manometrically, immediately upon completion of the anastomosis as well as 20
