[Physical methods of dissection and coagulation in surgery].

The paper presents 20-year experience in using various devices for tissue dissection and coagulation of such as electrosurgical ones EN-57M, Efa-0201 (Russia), Karl Storz-endoscope (Germany), Force-300, Force-FX, LigaSure ("Valley-lab", USA), Erbotom ICC 350 ("Erbe"), Argo-3000 ("Soring", Germany), a Surgitrone radioknife ("Ellman", USA), ultrasonic Auto Sonix devices ("Auto Suture", USA), a harmonic Ultracision scalpel ("Ethicon Endo-Surgery", USA), laser Scalpel-1 and Romashka-1 devices (Russia), plasma Fakel-01 and Prometey devices (Russia). The results of 424 experimental studies and clinical application of different energies in 1683 patients are analyzed. The influence of different types of energy on tissue and reparative processes were revealed, morphological changes were studied. Advantages and shortcomings of each type of energy are demonstrated, recommendations for their optimum application are formulated.
