METHOD OF SOFT-PLASMA EVAPORATION OF SOFT TISSUES ACCOMPANYING ENDONASAL DACRYOCYSTORHINOSTOMY Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC A61F9/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to ophthalmology. Method of cold-plasma evaporation of soft tissues in endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy involves ablation of mucous membrane on lateral wall of nasal cavity and medial wall of lachrymal sac. Evaporation is carried out under the following conditions: power supply mode to electrode EIC5874-01 of electrosurgical Arthrocare model Coblator II - pulsating, cobble power 230 W, coagulation power 20 W, coblation output voltage 265 V, coagulation of 75 V, temperature of electrolyte supplied through electrode irrigation channel 7–10 °C exposure impact on nasal mucosa is ≤ 5 seconds, exposing the lachrymal sac exposure ≤ 4 seconds.

EFFECT: use of this invention enables reducing the area of surgical injuries and improving functional efficiency of the operation.
