This one-of-a-kind text focuses on the uses of the Fugo blade, a
battery powered, portable electrosurgical unit that produces a
cool, thin plasma cloud that coats a blunt cutting filament. When
activated, the plasma cuts sharper than a diamond blade by
"ablation" of tissue similar to the action of a laser. This is a
novel, evolving technology that has been called the "first
improvement in incision since the introduction of the laser". The
unit is FDA approved for cataract, glaucoma, iridotomy as well as
dental surgery. This is the first time that the FDA has approved
surgeons to drain glaucoma fluid from behind the iris, which
simplifies the procedure and decreases complications. Over two
dozen other uses of the Fugo blade have been identified in
ophthalmology. Ocular Applications of the Fugo Blade describes and
illustrates over 40 innovative procedures using this technology.
Each section focuses on an anatomic area and details disorders that
are treated with the use of the Fugo blade. Clear photographs,
illustrations, and text explain the authors' approach to the
surgical problems. Ophthalmologists with interest in cataract,
glaucoma, refractive surgery, presbyopia reversal surgery,
strabismus muscle surgery, DCR surgery, dry eye syndrome, soft
tissue and plastic surgery, and retinal surgery as well as plastic
surgeons and neurosurgeons will benefit from Ocular Applications of
the Fugo Blade.
