[The use of CO2-laser and blood loss during mastectomy].
The problem of radical treatment of breast cancer which largely contributes nowadays to overall cancer incidence in female population is far from being solved. In view of the significance of surgical treatment of breast cancer, the study was initiated to clear up relations between blood loss and kind of surgery. Three groups of patients were assessed for blood loss: subjected to standard mastectomy, modified mastectomy and mastectomy with application of CO2-laser. The blood loss reached 351.2 +/- 11.2 ml, 303.0 +/- 10.8 ml and 155.0 +/- 12.4 ml, respectively. The results evidence the advantage of CO2-laser application in mastectomy in respect to reducing blood loss.
