Laparoscopic Nephrectomy Using the EnSeal Tissue Sealing and Hemostasis System: Successful Therapeutic Application of Nanotechnology

The potential impact of nanotechnology in the field of urology is broad with diagnostic and therapeutic benefits that have only recently begun to be explored. Application of nanotechnology principles to tissue and vessel sealing during laparoscopic procedures may reduce associated thermal injury and...

description The potential impact of nanotechnology in the field of urology is broad with diagnostic and therapeutic benefits that have only recently begun to be explored. Application of nanotechnology principles to tissue and vessel sealing during laparoscopic procedures may reduce associated thermal injury and inflammatory response. We report our initial experience using the EnSeal Tissue Sealing and Hemostasis System during laparoscopic nephrectomy and discuss its potential advantages and disadvantages compared with those of contemporary technologies.
