• strident alternative non-laser techniques, such as ligature or
electrocautery.
• Alterations in surgical approach or technique may be required to
accommodate laser use.
• The surgeon should schedule follow-up visits in the same manner as for
any patient undergoing such surgery with other modalities.
• Use caution when treating patients who have had difficulty with previous
endoscopic/cystoscopic procedures.
• Extra precaution should be taken when radiation therapy and laser
therapy are to be used concurrently, including more stringent post-
operative monitoring. Clinical studies have shown that patients who have
undergone radiation therapy present a greater risk of perforation or tissue
erosion.
• To avoid damage from the treatment beam or treatment beam
backscatter, it is recommended that the fiber be fully in the visual field.
Do not fire the laser unless the aim beam is visible and directed at the
intended target.
