연속형 $CO_2$ 레이저와 펄스형 $CO_2$ 레이저를 이용한 돼지 피부절개 시 창상 치유에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 본 실험을 실시하였다. 다섯 마리의 돼지(Landrace x Yorkshire) (45-51 kg, 4-6 개월령, 수컷 3마리, 암컷 2마리)를 이용 하였고, 각각의 돼지에서 우측 및 좌측의 등쪽 피부에 대칭적으로 연속형 $CO_2$ 레이저와 펄스형 $CO_2$ 레이저를 이용하여 절개($2{\times}2{\times}2cm^2$) 하였다. 양측 피부 절개는 Maxon 3-0 를 이용하여 봉합하였다. 수술 후 3, 7, 14, 21일에 병리조직학적 검사를 실시하였다. 창상 부위의 재상피화는 연속형 $CO_2$ 레이저 군에 비해 펄스형 $CO_2$ 레이저군에서 더 많이 이루어졌다. 육아조직 형성은 창상후 경과일 3일에 펄스 $CO_2$ 레이저군에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났다(P < 0.05). 섬유아세포는 창상후 경과일 7일에 펄스형 $CO_2$ 레이져군에서 유의적으로 많게 형성되었다(P < 0.05). 결론적으로 피부절개 시에 있어서 펄스형 $CO_2$ 레이저는 연속형 $CO_2$ 레이저에 비하여 재상피화, 육아조직형성 및 섬유아세포가 더 높게 나타났으며, 레이저 시술에 따른 조직손상을 적게 나타내었다. 따라서 피부절개 시에 있어서 펄스형$CO_2$ 레이저가 연속형 $CO_2$ 레이저 보다 더 적합할 것으로 판단된다.

배경; 기관 협착의 가장 흔한 원인은 기관 삽관에 따른 합병증이다. 기관 협착에 대한 치료 방침은 병변의 범위에 따라 달라진다. 전막부분의 국소적인 병변의 경우에는 레이저 절제요법을 적용할 수 있지만, 기관의 전층에 병변이 있는 경우는 기관 절제 후 단단 문합 수술을 시행하여야 좋은 치료 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 대상 및 방법; 경상대학교병원 흉부외과에서는 1998년 4월부터 1999년 5월까지 기관 삽관의 합병증으로 발생한 기관협착증 환자 12명에게 기관협착부위를 절제하고 단단 문합 수술을 시행하였다. 결과; 수술 후 사망자는 없었고, 조기 합병증으로 일시적인 성대마비가 5명, 창상 감염이 1명에서 발생하였다. 수술 후 평균 18개월간 추적하는 동안 재협착은 발견되지 않았다. 결론; 기관 삽관 후 발생한 기관협착증에 대한 외과적 치료로서 절제 및 단단 문합술은 비교적 우수한 치료버빙라 할 수 있다.

The early glottic cancers are traditionally treated by radiotherapy or endoscopic surgery. The excellent effectiveness of both treatment modalities for local control, larynx preservation, and disease specific death is similar. Therefore, functional voice outcome after treatment is one of the most important factors in the choice of treatment for early glottic cancer. To assess the functional outcomes and compare the voice quality in patients with early glottic cancer treated with curative intent with radiotherapy or laser cordectomy, we performed literature review. Most studies showed that the voice quality after radiation therapy is slightly better than that after laser cordectomy. Subanalysis according to types of laser cordectomy, however, indicates that voice quality depends on type of laser cordectomy. Especially, type I or type II laser cordectomy might be superior to other types of laser cordectomy and radiation therapy. We conclude that the laser cordectomy is a good surgical alternative for properly selected early glottic cancer including professional voice users.

Objectives : In $CO_2$ laser surgery for supraglottic cancer, neck dissection is generally done in second stage. We investigated simultaneous neck dissection with primary resection could be available in laser supraglottic surgery. Material and Methods : We analyzed 13 patients with supraglottic cancer who were treated with transoral supraglottic laryngectomy and simultaneous neck dissection from 2001 to 2007. Tumor stage, extent of laser surgery, histological results, survival rate, local control rate, complications, and functional results were reviewed. Results : 5-year local control rate, survival rate and disease specific survival rate from the neck was 100%, 69.9%, 100% respectively. Tracheotomy was done in all 13 cases. One patient had a long tracheotomy indwelling (191 days). In the rest of 12 patients average decanulation time was 7.4 days(1-22 days). Nasogastric tube was inserted in 5 cases, and average oral intake was possible in 3.5 days(1-16 days). Average hospital days was 29.7 days. There was no serious complication associated with neck dissection. Conclusion : Simultaneous neck dissection with primary laser resection for supraglottic cancer is oncologic sound and can be performed without significant surgical morbidity.

There are several lasers available for office-based or suspension microlaryngoscopy laser procedures in the treatment of laryngeal diseases. Each has advantages and disadvantages given the depth of penetration per unit of power, absorption in water, spectral absorption characteristics, mode of delivery, safety, and cost. It is important to note that while the proper selection of indication of treatment based on a laser wavelength is critical, of equal importance is selecting the appropriate power setting, focal length (or spot size), and time of exposure. The photoangiolytic lasers precisely target hemoglobin within the microcirculation of the highly vascularized tissue and may have better hemostatic effects and preservation of surrounding normal tissue than the CO₂ laser. Although the choice of laser is purely theoretical and cannot be accurately concluded which parameters of laser (wattage and pulse width) were best to use, photoangiolytic laser surgery is safe and effective for specific laryngeal lesions. In this review, indications for photoangiolytic laser procedures for various laryngeal diseases, laser settings and surgical techniques for specific laryngeal lesions including sulcus vocalis, laryngeal dysplasia, and recurrent respiratory papillomatosis will be introduced. Pros and cons of in-office laser surgery using photoangiolytic laser and flexible CO₂ laser will also be addressed.

Backgrounds and Objectives : There have been reported many studies which evaluate the effectiveness of combined laryngomicrosurgery(LMS) and voice therapy for the patients with benign vocal cord lesions. But the difference of voice improvement by onset time of voice therapy has not been reported. The purpose of this study is to analyze the differences of voice improvement by voice analysis test between the two groups with different onset time of voice therapy. Materials and Methods : Two groups, each of which comprises 15 patients, were analyzed. For the one group, the voice therapy was initiated 1 day after LMS. For the other, the therapy was initiated 1 week after LMS. Voice analytic parameters of the two groups were statistically analized to identify difference in voice improvement. Results : All measured parameters improved after voice therapy in two groups and showed no significant difference between two groups. Conclusions : The onset time of voice therapy after LMS has no significant impact on post-operative voice quality in the patients with benign vocal cord lesions. Early onset of post-operative voice therapy may serve as treatment modality for patients with benign vocal cord lesions.

Recently, conservative and bloodless operative procedures have been focused, so that endoscopic laser have been used. However application of endoscopic laser surgery for laryngeal lesion is capable for followings: (1)capability of delivery through an operating microscope, (2) vaporization of ultraspot. $CO_2$ laser which has been used, has limitations for voice improvement because of 700 micron beam spot. KTP-532 laser which is capable of delivery through an operating microscope vapore 200 micron ultraspot has developed and applied to microlaryngeal surgery. We have experienced 60 cases who were contracted with hoarseness(53 cases of benign lesions vocal nodule 13, vocal polyp 13, bilateral diffuse polyposis of vocal cords 11, intracordal cyst 8, vocal papilloma 5, laryngocele 1, laryngeal stenosis 2 and 7 cases of malignant lesions : laryngeal carcinoma stage I and II) since 1991. We operated them with KTP-532 Laserscope(3 Watt/0.05 sec., pulsed or continuous. San Jose, Calif, USA). Forty eigh cases(90.6%) of 53 bengin laryngeal lesions and 4 cases(57.1%) of malignant lesions were significantly improved in their voices. There were a few complications and technical problems, but laser surgery alone had a limitation to eradicate the disease.

Background and Objectives: To determine if laser endoscopic microsurgery is a reliable and appropriate approach in the treatment of laryngeal carcinomas. Materials and Methods: Retrospective study of 62 patients treated with CO2 laser from June 1988 to November 2000 at Seoul National University Hospital for laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. All patients were treated with curative intention. Fifty three untreated patients with laryngeal carcinoma (39 glottic and 14 supraglottic carcinoma patients) had primary carbon dioxide laser microsurgery. Nine radiation failure patients were treated. Postoperative radiotheray was done for 17 patients. Neck dissection was performed simultaneously for 4 supraglottic cases with cervical nodal metastasis. Mean follow-up duration was 40 months. Results: In primary laser surgery group, distribution of tumors (American Joint Committee on Cancer, 1997) were 38 cases with Tl, 13 cases with T2, 2 cases with T3. Cure rate was 88.7%(47/53) and local control rate was 92.5%(49/53). Larynx was preserved in 94%(50/53) of patients. The overall 5-year survival rate(Kaplan-Meier) was 81.5%. In radiation failure group, 56% of patients were recurred after laser surgery. Conclusion: Laser surgery could be a better treatment modality for early laryngeal cancers and selected advanced cases. Additional radiation therapy should be considered if resection margin is not satisfactory.

Pulse 펄스형 Nd:YAG 레이저는 피부재생치료에 적합하고, 램프에 의해서 연속발진은 물론 정상발진, Q-스위치 및 모드동기 발진까지 다양한 발전 형태가 가능하며 미세수술 및 피부재생 촉진에 널리 사용되어지고 있다. 치료목적에 따라 에너지 밀도를 제어하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 에너지 밀도의 제어는 레이저 출력의 펄스반복률을 제어하는 방법이 주로 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 펄스형 Nd:YAG 레이저의 펄스반복률을 제어할 수 있는 제 2고조파 발생(second harmonic generation: SHG)로 각주파수인 광파의 에너지 일부가 비선형 결정안을 전파하면서 각주파수인 광파의 에너지로 변환되는 현상을 적용하여 2차 비선형성에 의한 제2고조파 발생을 통해 피부심부까지 치료 가능하다는 것은 간단히 관찰할 수 있었다.
