Early reports using TORS uniformly described the use of monopolar electrocautery (EC) to perform surgical resection due to the lack of a robust flexible laser fiber. This prompted investigation into a new laser design: the thulium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Tm:YAG) laser (RevoLixTM, Lisa Laser P
## Abstract ## Introduction The holmium:YAG laser is currently the most common laser lithotripter. However, recent experimental studies have demonstrated that the thulium fiber laser is also capable of vaporizing urinary stones. The highβtemperature water absorption coefficient for the thulium wav
Percutaneous endoscopic approaches to cholelithiasis would be facilitated by methods for welding gallbladder tissues. We evaluated the bursting pressure and histologic appearance of canine gallbladder tissue welded with a thulium-holmiumchromium:YAG (THC:YAG) laser producing a 2.15 pm pulsed output.
