Abstract

Une forme d'exécution de l'invention concerne des procédés ayant trait à une intervention chirurgicale. En particulier, une forme d'exécution de l'invention concerne des procédés permettant d'effectuer une intervention chirurgicale au moyen d'un cathéter d'administration contenant un ensemble à laser à fibres optiques. Conformément à une forme d'exécution de l'invention, un procédé permettant d'effectuer une intervention chirurgicale comprend les étapes ci-après : mise en place d'un cathéter d'administration dans une zone spécifique de l'intervention ; activation d'un ensemble à laser à fibres optiques dans le cathéter d'administration ; et mise en place de l'ensemble à laser à fibres optiques en vue de créer un trou spécifique pour le traitement dans la zone spécifique de l'intervention.One embodiment of the invention relates to methods relating to surgical intervention. In particular, one embodiment of the invention relates to methods for performing a surgical procedure using a delivery catheter containing a fiber optic laser assembly. According to an embodiment of the invention, a method for performing a surgical procedure comprises the following steps: placing a delivery catheter in a specific area of the intervention; activation of a fiber optic laser assembly in the delivery catheter; and placing the fiber optic laser assembly to create a specific hole for treatment in the specific area of the intervention.
