LASING TECHNIQUE FOR TONSILLAR FOSSA FOLLOWING TOSILLECTOMY Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC A61N5/67 A61B17/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine area, namely to otorhinolaryngology. Substance of the method consists in lasing of tonsillar bed following laser bilateral tonsillectomy of decompensated chronic tonsillitis by contact laser applications. Herewith mucous membrane is incised with indent 1-2 mm from front edge of anterior pillar from both sides distal part of end face of a light guide of a semiconductor laser "MILON-LAHTA" by continuous contact method at output laser power 8.5 Wt. Thereafter, through the incision, with using a raspatory, upper pole of palatine tonsil is separated with dislocating from tonsillar fossa. Laser radiation transmitted through a distal end face of the light guide by continuous contact method at laser power 9.5 Wt, adhesions and fusions between palatine tonsil and tonsillar fossa are gradually dissected to lower pole consequently cutting off from lateral wall. Bleeding sites of palatine tonsil bed are lased within 3 to 5 applications with distal end face of the light guide of the semi-conductor laser "MILON-LAHTA" by continuous contact method at laser power 8 Wt.

EFFECT: application of given invention allows for effective lasing of tonsillar bed following laser tosillectomy.
