Laser enables treatment of hemorrhoidal

diseases of grades II, III and IV. Laser ablation
The laser hemorrhoid ablation technique, otherwise known as
laser hemorrhoidoplasty or laser obliteration, is well-established
in the treatment of hemorrhoidal diseases II, III and IV grades by
laser hemorrhoidal obliteration.

Grade II Grade III

How it works?
Laser hemorrhoidoplasty procedure A laser hemorrhoid plastic surgery involves the introduction of
a special conical tip fiber, also called ‘arrow fiber’, into the
cavity of the hemorrhoid plexus and its obliteration with a light
Entrance beam at the wavelength of 1470 nm. The submucosal
emission of light causes shrinkage of the hemorrhoid mass,
The specially designed the connective tissue renews itself - the mucosa is adhered to
pencil-shaped fiber tip allows the underlying tissues thereby eliminating the risk of the
the fiber to be inserted into nodule prolapse. The treatment leads to the reconstruction of
the hemorrhoid light without collagen and restores the natural anatomical structure. The

anesthesia or light sedation.

and regresses. The advantages of laser hemorrhoidoplasty with the use of the
SWING 1470 laser and the conical tip fiber are disproportionate
to other methods currently used. The use of the laser ablation
technique is more comfortable both for the patient and the
doctor.

What is a unique feature of the conical tip fiber is a significant
reduction in forward energy emission in comparison to bare
fibers. The energy delivered from the tip of the fiber ensures
a uniform ablation of the tissue without penetration beyond
the planned area. Thanks to its special design, the conical tip
fiber can be introduced into the hemorrhoid without the risk
of perforations or damage.

Conical tip fibers are delivered to the customer in sterile, double

packages and are ready to use. The storage period without the
risk of losing its sterility is up to 5 years.

Laser proctology anoscope

The anoscope has a specially designed feature resembling

wings to facilitate the introduction or change of its position
without the risk of tissue damage. The anoscope has the
diameter of 34 mm and the length of 90 mm. It is slanted and
anatomically formed to enable the exposure of hemorrhoids
for laser ablation. The anoscope is with an obturator. It is
packed in a sterile, double package and ready to use without
the need of disinfection.
