Background: One of the most popular surgical operations performed using a variety techniques is tonsillectomy. The two that are used frequently traditional cold dissection technique (CDT) and electrocautery, latter which carried out monopolar bipolar electrocautery procedures (BET).All during tonsillectomy intended to lessen perioperative bleeding, intensity felt pain, postoperative morbidities...

Vokurka J . : Influence of Electric Current on Small Intestine of the Rat. Acta Vet. Brno 2003, 72: 553-558.

The supply artery of the intestine was subject to electrocautery at various distances from the intestine wall. We evaluated the resulting adhesions in the peritoneal cavity an...

The authors report on the case of a 67-year-old man with longstanding breathlessness, which was eventually attributed to a fixed mass in the upper third of the trachea causing upper airway obstruction. The lesion was amenable to loop electrocautery resection via flexible bronchoscopy that led to prompt resolution of patient symptoms. Biopsy was consistent with tracheal hamartoma, an exceedingly...
