EVOLVE™ EVOLVE™ represents evolution, development and genesis EVOLVE™ is an innovative Diode laser system with a compact, maintenancefree design for effective and safe use in ENT surgery. Specifically designed for various applications, this sophisticated system by biolitec offers a wide range of possibilities for minimally invasive laser therapy of ear, nose and throat ailments. Useful in the OR, out-patient clinic and in private practice: You will be able to expand your range of applications individually according to your individual requirements. Effective, precise, minimally invasive with...

Procedure Laser-tissue interaction of the in the EVOLVE™ system The wavelength of 980nm has a high absorbance in water and haemoglobin. The thermal penetration depth is less than in the Nd:YAG laser. This allows safe and precise procedures to be performed close to delicate structures while protecting the surrounding tissue. Compared to the CO2 laser, this special wavelength exhibits a significantly better haemostasis and prevents bleeding during the operation, even in hemorrhagic structures such as nasal polyps and haemangioma. With the EVOLVE™ system, precise excisions, incisions and...

EVOLVE™ EVOLVE™ diode laser system applications that can be carried out on an out-patient basis under local anesthesia Endonasal surgery Endoscopic surgery is an established, modern process in the treatment of nasal and paranasal sinuses. However, due to the strong bleeding tendency of the mucosal tissue, surgical treatment in this area is often challenging. A poor operating field of vision due to bleeding often results in imprecise work; prolonged nasal packing and significant patient and doctor effort is usually unavoidable. The main imperative in endonasal surgery is to maintain Areas of...

Oropharynx One of the must frequent operations in the oropharynx area is laser tonsillotomy in children (KISSING TONSILS). In paediatric symptomatic tonsillar hyperplasias, LTT represents a sensible, gentle and very low risk alternative to tonsillectomy (children up to 6 years of age). The risk of post-operative bleeding is minimal. The minimal amount of post-operative pain thanks to the shortened period of healing, the ability to perform out-patient operations (with general anesthesia) and the leaving behind of a tonsillar parenchyma are significant advantages to laser tonsillotomy. Areas...

EVOLVE™ Dacryocystorhinostomie (DCR) Hindered drainage of tear fluid, caused by a blockage of the lacrimal duct, is a common condition, particularly amongst older patients. The traditional treatment method is to surgically reopen the lacrimal duct externally. However, this is a lengthy, difficult procedure associated with a high potential for side effects such as strong, postoperative bleeding and scar formation. biolitec has developed a patented application set for DCR that makes the reopening of the lacrimal duct a safer, minimally invasive procedure. The thin cannula with its...

Ambulantory Local anaesthesia Vascular lesions, haemangioma With the powerful EVOLVE™ system, aesthetically undesirable vascular lesions such as spider veins and telangiectasias can also be effectively treated. A focusing handpiece and a special Derma mode of the biolitec Laser is used for transcutaneous treatments. Larger cavernous haemangioma should be treated interstitially. Following puncture using a thin cannula, the laser fiber is introduced and the haemangioma is coagulated at low laser energy in a controlled manner. Areas of application: Telangiectasia before after Lip haemangioma...

EVOLVE™ EVOLVE™ diode laser system applications that can be carried out on an out-patient basis under general anesthesia in the hospital operating room Otology Areas of application: • - Stapedectomy • - Myringotomy (Paracentesis) With its extremely thin laser fiber (220μm), the EVOLVE™ system can be used safely and very precisely on delicate structures in the inner ear using the contact method. In contrast to the CO2 laser using the open beam method, this method almost completely eliminates the risk of laser energy inadvertently affecting other areas. The laser energy is only applied upon...

Paediatrics Paediatrics In paediatric procedures, surgery often involves very narrow and delicate structures. The EVOLVE™ system offers considerable advantages. Using extremely thin laser fibers, such as in connection with a micro-endoscope, even these structures can be easily reached and precisely treated. For example, recurrent pappiloma, a very common indication in children, becomes a bloodless and painless operation, with post-operative measures being signifi cantly reduced. Areas of application: • Haemangioma • Congenital and acquired laryngeal stenosis • Neoplastic stenosis • aser...
