For the treatment of bladder tumors and urethral strictures
According to the American Cancer Society, in 2007, more than 67,000 new cases of urinary bladder cancer were diagnosed in the United States.1,3 Superficial bladder tumors, involving only the inner lining of the bladder, account for approximately 70% to 80% of all bladder tumors.13,14
The new GreenLight HPS EA Fibre is designed to extend the proven GreenLight™ technology beyond the treatment of BPH to the treatment of bladder tumors and urethral strictures.
GreenLight advantages in the treatment of bladder tumors
- Avascular Procedure—Virtually no bleeding because of the high affinity of the GreenLight wavelength to oxyhemoglobin.15
- Controlled Depth of Penetration—The 532-nm laser energy of GreenLight has an optical penetration depth of 0.8 mm. This minimal depth of penetration eliminates the deeper damage that sometimes leads to secondary hemorrhage.15
- Avoiding the Obturator Reflex—GreenLight does not conduct electricity, therefore it eliminates the risk of stimulating the obturator nerve and creating a spasm of the patient's obturator muscle.
- Patient Comfort and Tolerance—The EA Fibre can be put through a 21 French scope, which is smaller than the resectoscope used in traditional surgery.
