This article, published in the journal Endoscopy, explores the use of a Thulium fiber laser (TFL) as an alternative to electrosurgery for treating Zenker's diverticula (ZD) and cricopharyngeal bar (CB). The study retrospectively analyzed 8 patients treated at Haukeland University Hospital and found that the TFL was effective in improving dysphagia in all patients. The TFL offers benefits such as reduced CO2 usage, high precision, and effective tissue ablation, but further research is needed to confirm these findings. [Extracted from the article] |
