Flexible CO2 laser fiber: first look at the learning curve required in gynecological laparoscopy training.

CONCLUSIONS: Our study found that residents without surgical experience show better skills with the flexible CO2 laser fiber delivery system compared to the standard line-of-sight CO2 laser system after a two-month training period with gynecological laparoscopic box. According to our results, flexible CO2 laser fiber delivery system is technically accessible and holds a potential in gynecological surgery. PMID: 28994558 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
