Resumen
DIEZ RECIO, Esther et al. Application of laser technology to genital lesions. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2008, vol.61, n.9, pp.1145-1156. ISSN 0004-0614.
The use of laser applications in urology has undergone significant advances and is now used in a wide variety of procedures. Improvements in types of lasers, the wavelength of energy used, optical fiber delivery systems, precision of laser applications and cost reduction have served to further improve laser technology and extend the potential applications. The different types of lasers available at the present time appear to be an alternative treatment modality with excellent cosmetic and functional results and low morbidity in the treatment of benign, pre-malignant and malignant lesions in the genital area. The objective of this article is to provide an update on the most important clinical and experimental advancements therapeutic applications of lasers in genital lesions.
