title: [Microvascular sutures using a CO2 laser. Initial clinical applications. Apropos of 6 cases].
abstract: Six microvascular anastomoses were performed using a CO2 low output laser. Time of execution was shorter than with the conventional technique. CO2 laser seems to be promising technique and should allow a better patency rate in microvascular surgery.
