[CO2 laser surgery in otolaryngology: experience in 1992].
The authors made a retrospective study of patients treated with laser CO2 in 1992 in the ENT. Clinic of the University Hospital of Puerto Real (Cádiz). The following parameters were considered: age, sex, province of origin, nature of the disease, type of surgical intervention, clinical evolutions and results to evaluate the efficacy of laser-therapy, its indications and its application limits. Furthermore, a comparison was made of these data and the their equivalents achieved during the five-year period 1986-1991. Indications, use of the laser CO2 and appropriate power for the pathological process and site of lesions were noted.
