ない。The reason why the laser irradiation emits smoke or ignites from the tissue at the surgical site is that oxygen-containing air is present in the surroundings. Therefore, if the surgical site is blown with an inert gas such as argon gas and the air is expelled from the surgical site, the laser does not emit smoke or ignite even if the tissue is irradiated with the laser.

The present invention provides: (a) a laser to an irradiation device (1); Then, a blowing part (3) is attached to the inert gas, and the inert gas is sprayed toward the laser operation site. (B) The optical fiber (4) is connected to a medical laser oscillator, and the inert gas is supplied from a cylinder (8) via a pipe (6) and a flow controller (7).

い。[Function] Since the present invention has the above structure, when using it, a laser is irradiated to a surgical site while blowing an inert gas. At this time, the surgical site to which the laser is irradiated is used. Does not emit smoke or ignite because air containing oxygen is replaced by an inert gas.
