RevoLix
RevoLix
RevoLix is a surgical laser developed specifically for soft tissue surgery, featuring a 2-micron wavelength that offers continuous emission. This technology combines the benefits of existing surgical lasers, providing efficient incision and ablation similar to CO2 lasers, with excellent haemostasis, particularly beneficial for high-risk BPH patients under anticoagulant medication.
The RevoLix laser offers superior cutting efficiency and haemostasis compared to alternatives. It uses saline or water for irrigation, reducing the risk of TUR Syndrome. The laser's effect is limited to 3 mm from the fibre tip, minimizing tissue damage. Visualization during surgery is enhanced as bleeding and laser glare do not obstruct the view.
- No blood loss or transfusions
- Quick recovery and short hospital stays
- Less postoperative care and short catheterization time in BPH treatment
- Precise surgery with no deep tissue penetration
- Safe operation with excellent haemostasis
- Suitable for patients under anticoagulant therapy
- Multi-disciplinary applications
RevoLix lasers are available in 70, 120, and 200-watt models, with adjustable power settings. They operate on a continuous wave DPSS laser system with a 2.0-micron wavelength. The system is user-friendly, requiring no special installation and is easily movable between rooms.
RevoLix is used in various surgical disciplines, including urology, neurosurgery, gynaecology, ENT, and more. In urology, it is particularly noted for its performance in BPH treatments, such as vaporization, vaporesection, and enucleation of the prostate.
The RevoLix laser is safe for use in aqueous environments, with tissue effects limited to a small area around the fibre tip. This minimizes the risk of unintended tissue damage. The laser's efficacy is maintained due to the absorption properties of water, which remain consistent under temperature changes.
RevoLix represents a significant advancement in surgical laser technology, offering precise, efficient, and safe options for a variety of medical procedures. Its continuous development and versatility make it a valuable tool in modern surgical practices.

WHAT IS REVOLIX RevoLix™ - why ? RevoLix™ - why 2 micron continuous wave ? RevoLix is the only laser specifically developed for soft tissue surgery. The RevoLix laser wavelength is 2 micron. This wavelength is similar to Holmium but the emission is continuous instead of pulsed. RevoLix unifies the advantages of formerly existing surgical laser principles in a single unit: The RevoLix wavelength at 2.0 micron is excellent for incision and ablation. It is safe in an aqueous irrigation and it provides superior haemostasis. The effect of the laser on tissue is independent of tissue vascularisation....

WHY REVOLIX RevoLix - why is it safe ? RevoLix – BPH protocols and learnin curve In an aqueous irrigation the laser effect to tissue is RevoLix offers a variety of BPH options [6]: restricted to less than 3 mm in front of the tip of the J Vaporization fibre. Any tissue further afield is shielded by the irrigant. The same mechanism is protecting tissue and J Vaporesection organs adjacent to the cut. Any tissue more than 3 mm J Enucleation distant is unaffected by the RevoLix laser. Unlike to Histology of excised prostatic tissue after vaporization with RevoLix 200 watt laser Green lasers this...

APPLICATIONS RevoLix - what are the applications ? The RevoLix laser system has demonstrated its superiority in surgical disciplines such as Urology, Neurosurgery*, Gynaecology, Pneumology, Spine Surgery and ENT. In Urology RevoLix gains much attention for its superior performance in vaporisation and resection of the prostatic adenoma (BPH), outpatient treatment of reoccurring renal and bladder tumours, opening of strictures, incisions and tissue preserving excisions.
