Abstract
Rabbit fallopian tubes were used as models to demonstrate the delayed effects of the argon laser wavelength on tissue. Power density, energy density, and velocity were all variables in the experiment. Three groups of ten rabbits were sacrificed two at a time, on days 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20. The results clearly showed delayed tissue changes associated with fibrosis. Mathematical and theoretical comparisons of the argon laser to the carbon dioxide laser help express the advantages and disadvantages of the use of the argon laser in fallopian tube surgery. The return of organ function with respect to time has possible significance to studies of human fallopian tube surgeries.
