1. Use of Neutral Argon Plasma in the Laparoscopic Treatment of Endometriosis: link
Neutral argon plasma can be utilized as a multi-functional device that has vaporization, coagulation, and superficial cutting capacities with minimal thermal spread and acceptable outcomes. The use of neutral argon plasma appears to be efficacious and safe for the complete treatment of endometriotic implants.
Vaporization: the probe was directed at the lesions from a distance of close to 5mm, spraying the tissue surface at an angle of approximately 45 degrees until the tissue surface demonstrated a characteristic silver, shiny appearance and there was visual confirmation of complete eradication of the lesions
Cutting: closer to the tissue surface at approximately a 90-degree angle
Within the limitations of a pilot study, plasma energy appears to be efficacious and safe for the complete vaporization of endometriotic implants and can be used for the laparoscopic management of endometriosis.
