Herniated Inter vertebral Disc Laser treatment Percutaneous Laser Disc Decompression PLDD
PLDD is the minimally-invasive medical procedure developed by Dr. Daniel S.J. Choy in 1986 that uses a laser beam to treat back and neck pain caused by a herniated disc. A herniated disc is like a balloon with a weak spot. Inflating it will cause a bulge (herniation). Pain results from the bulge pressing against nerves in the spinal column.
The PLDD treatment is performed on an outpatient basis using only local anesthesia. During the procedure, a thin needle is inserted into the herniated disc under x-ray guidance. An optical fiber is inserted through the needle and laser energy is sent through the fiber, vaporizing a tiny portion of the disc nucleus. This creates a partial vacuum which draws the herniation away from the nerve root, thereby relieving the pain. The effect usually is immediate.
The 1470nm with larger water absorption properties appears to have an effect on the entire nucleus pulposus and not only in surrounding tissue of laser fiber (carbonization zone). During PLDD, disc volume is minimally decreased, however, disc pressure can be significantly lowered. When using laser for disc decompression, a small amount of nucleus pulposus evaporates.
Harlas dual wavelength 1470nm Minimally invasive laser is an outstanding surgical laser machine designed for PLDD treatment. It has a compact and modular design mainly in silver aluminum alloy housing and black tempered glass panel, exuding soft luster, aesthetic feeling and delicate texture. It has a light weight and small size,which is easy to carry and easy in cleaning.
980nm achieving high absorption simultaneously through hemoglobin and water, due to its wavelength, thus with a high ablation capacity which leads to complete clusure of treated vein . The 1470nm wavelength,cooperating with a radial, is very precise and additionally protects the patient against excessive heating of the tissues surrounding the removed vein.
