The lung tumor was removed from its base with a monopolar snare and endoCUT Q (3-1-6). It was taken out of the lung with a flexible single-use cryoprobe 1.7 mm. More recanalization can be done … Continue reading Removal of a lung tumor with monopolar snare, flexible single-use cryoprobe and APC
EMR for lateral spreading tumors (LST) with HybridAPC margin ablation
In a piecemeal EMR, neoplastic tissue may remain at the edge or surface of the resection, which can be the cause of a local recurrence. Thermal ablation after EMR can reduce the recurrence rate by … Continue reading EMR for lateral spreading tumors (LST) with HybridAPC margin ablation
Treatment of angiodysplasia with FiAPC® probe 1500 A using preciseAPC® mode
Angiodysplasias in all sections of the gastrointestinal tract can be treated successfully using argon plasma coagulation. The aim is to avoid recurrent bleeding. Angiodysplasias often occur in the small intestine and can be treated with … Continue reading Treatment of angiodysplasia with FiAPC® probe 1500 A using preciseAPC® mode
Recanalization with 1.7mm single-use cryoprobe
Like cryobiopsies, the tumor can be frozen to the tip of the cryoprobe and removed. An effective cryorecanalization is thus possible in up to 91 % of the cases.
Bleeding management after endobronchial recanalization with flexible FiAPC® probe 1500 A
Argon plasma coagulation (APC) in flexible bronchoscopy is used to control bleeding in the tracheobronchial tract. See also in this case bleeding management with the flexible FiAPC® probe 1500 A after recanalization of an endobronchial … Continue reading Bleeding management after endobronchial recanalization with flexible FiAPC® probe 1500 A
Laparoscopic argon plasma cut and coagulation for the treatment of deep and superficial endometriosis
Laparoscopic surgery using argon plasma coagulation and argon-assisted cutting are ideal for the gentle and effective treatment of the deep and superficial endometriosis that has affected the uterus and ovaries.
Zenker’s diverticulotomy with APC 2
Argon plasma coagulation (APC) for flexible endoscopic therapy of Zenker’s diverticulum is effective and reliable. Compared to other methods it offers the advantage of an efficient hemostasis.
Teleangiectasia, hemostasis with APC 2
Effective hemostasis in case of hemorrhagic teleangiectasia using a flexible APC probe. The PRECISE APC mode is provided by the VIO Generator and the APC 2 module of a Gastroenterology Workstation.
Eradication of residual Barrett´s mucosa with HybridAPC
Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC) has been used for thermal ablation of Barrett’s esophagus for years. The flexible HybridAPC probe from Erbe combines now APC with waterjet elevation to create a submucosal protective layer. HybridAPC enables … Continue reading Eradication of residual Barrett´s mucosa with HybridAPC
