The present study reports the therapeutic results obtained by using neodym-YAG laser for the coagulation of tumours of the external genitals (n = 30), as well as for endoscopic laser treatment of tumours of the bladder (n = 32) and the urethra (n = 2). Despite the small number of cases, laser treatment of bladder tumours (observation period 6-33 months) appears to reduce the orthotopic recurrence rate, which is in aggrement with other publications. However, randomized studies will be necessary to prove the advantages of the above-mentioned method as compared with electroresection. Neodym-YAG laser also appears to be a valuable extension of the urological therapeutic armamentarium for external application, especially in penile carcinoma at stage T1 + T2, N0, M0.

Background And Objective: To analyze changes in selected parameters in optical coherence tomography (OCT) after subthreshold laser coagulation (ST-LP) in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR).
Materials And Methods: Fifty-four eyes of 49 patients with CSCR were included in the study. Each patient underwent therapy with ST-LP with a frequency-doubled Neodym-YAG Laser and OCT imaging.

Background: Haemangiomas represent the most common type of benign vascular tumours in childhood. A proliferative phase of unknown duration and extent is followed by an involutional period, which passes into regression in approximately 70 % of all cases. A multitude of different treatment options, such as corticosteroids, cryotherapy, laser, sclerotherapy, radiotherapy and surgical methods have been published.
