In this recap from the 12th Annual Pediatric Surgery Update Course, Dr. Carlos Colunga highlights the potential of CO2 lasers in pediatric surgery. From circumcisions to frenulectomies and pilonidal cyst ablations, CO2 lasers are gaining traction for their precision, reduced pain, and shorter operating times.

Key Highlights:

  • Clinical Applications: Successfully used for circumcision, frenulectomy, perianal fistulas, pilonidal cysts, and more.
  • Benefits of CO2 Lasers: Reduced bleeding, lower complication rates, shorter operative times, and improved cosmetic outcomes.
  • Evidence-Based Insights: Meta-analyses show CO2 laser-assisted surgeries have better results than traditional techniques in specific cases.
  • Challenges: High equipment cost, steep learning curve, and the need for specialized training remain barriers to adoption.

Join us to explore how CO2 lasers are transforming pediatric surgery and learn about the exciting possibilities for the future!

Host: Lizzy Lee, PA-C
