Diode Laser Surgery of Multiple Traumatic Fibromas of the Buccal Mucosa in Patient Taking Oral Anticoagulant: Conventional and Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopical Examination
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 5
Abstract
To report on a case of multiple traumatic fibromas of the buccal mucosa surgically removed by diode laser (wavelength 980nm, laser set to 1,5 Watt in continuous wave, fibre of 300micron in diameter) in a patient receiving oral anticoagulants, in order not to suspend or modify the set therapy and performed a safe surgery with complete control of the intra-operative bleeding, and nonetheless making stiches unnecessary. Histological examination of the specimens and confocal laser scanning microscopical examination of the deep margins of excision was performed to evaluate the interaction among diode laser and biological tissues.
