Especially in the treatment of benign and premalignant vulvar and cervical dysplasias the standard treatment involves the application of laser energy . In prenatal medicine, laser coagulation of placenta vessels has shown to be superior to any other intrauter in etherapy of twin- to-twin transfusion syndrome(TTTS) in monochorionic twin pregnancies . However ,not all expectations in laser technology have been fulfilled. In laparoscopy for instance, the use of the laser has been abandoned in favor of high-frequency electric surgery [6]. This paper gives a short introduction to current applications of laser techniques in gynecology and obstetrics. It focuses on the medical treatment and on technical aspects of laser therapy. Laser–tissue interactions : In short, laser–tissue...

In the 1998/99 academic year, I was appointed the deanery’s Medical Ethics fellow with a bursary from the MDU. I developed an approach to the teaching of GP ethics based on two half day sessions, which...
