Journal Title: Polski Przegląd Otorynolaryngologiczny - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Professor Geza Julius Jako was involved in development of CO2 Laser larynx surgery. In 1972 he was the first one to publish clinical case results of using CO2 laser with patients. For the first time in Poland, CO2 laser was used during larynx surgery as ‘surgery knife’ in Otolaryngology Clinic of Medical Academy in Warsaw (WUM) on 28th of April 1983. CO2 Laser was created in Quantum Electronics Institute of Military Technical Academy by Professor Zbigniew Puzewicz team. The CO2 laser was donated to Clinic for medical and scientific purpose thanks to Professor Grzegorz Janczewski, who was the director of Otolaryngology Clinic. The first surgeons, who introduced laser surgery in Poland were Zbigniew Sonnenberg, Ryszard Połubiński and Jadwiga Osuch.
