Fresh prostatic tissue specimens were obtained from five patients by open prostatectomy, and were divided into separate groups （70 and 120 W） based on the energy of the laser output （70 and 120 W, respectively）. The vaporesection speed, coagulation zone depth and the necrotic tissue layer in the prostatic tissue were evaluated. The current result showed that the speeds （mean±s.d.） of vaporesection were 5.21±0.66 and 10.39±1.15 g/5 min for the 70 and 120 W groups, respectively （P=0.000）. There was no difference in the depth of necrosis/ coagulation （0.98±0.1310.30±0.09 and 0.99±0.12/0.31±0.08 mm） for the 70 and 120 W groups, respectively. In conclusion, both 70- and 120-W 2μm laser devices had superficial tissue damage during the vaporesection of human prostate tissue; moreover, the 120-W laser offers a higher vaporesection speed than the 70-W laser.展开更多

A total of 9 fresh prostatic tissue specimens were obtained by open surgery and the wet weight of the prostatic tissue were measured immediately after the sample collection. Under the simulated conditions of transurethral vaporesection of the prostate by 2-μm laser, each prostate gland was completely vaporesected into fragments with a diameter of less than 1.0 cm in vitro tissue were collected and measured. Then After the vaporesection, the whole fragments of prostatic the lost weight of prostatic tissue, the weight of the collected prostatic tissue and the ratio of the lost weight of prostatic tissue to the wet weight of the prostate glandular organ specimen were calculated. The correlation between the weight of collected prostatic tissue and the weight of the whole glandular organ was analyzed. All the experimental procedures were carried out by one operator. Wet weight of the prostatic gland specimen and the weight of the harvested prostatic tissues after the procedure were recorded. With respect to the wet weight of prostate gland specimen, the percentage of the weight of collected prostatic tissue was （34.45±1.51） %, and the percentage of the lost weight of prostatic tissue was （65.55±1.51）%. Satisfactory linear relationship was observed between the weight of collected prostatic tissue and the wet weight of prostate gland specimen [y=3.245x=6.475 （t=15.097, P=0.000）]. It is concluded that under the simulated conditions of transurethral vaporesection of the prostate by 2-μm laser, the vaporization ratio of prostatic tissue can be calculated on the basis of the weight of collected prostatic tissue, and thereby the clearance of prostatic tissue during the formal operation by 2-μm laser could be quantitatively determined.展开更多
