Tumor ablation with APC

Always the right tissue effect through the APC 2 modes in the VIO System

The preferred form of tissue ablation of large tumor masses (debulking) using VIO APC 2 is by means of vaporization using very high energy outputs. In addition to the tumor masses which are directly excised, in the days following the intervention thermally necrotized tissue will also die off and there will be tissue shrinkage created by the desiccation of the tissue, so that the neoplastic tissue will be further reduced.

Indications

Ablation of large tumor masses debulking)
Stenoses (recanalization)

Advantages of ERBE equipment

Safe, effective and rapid coagulation, even of larger areas
Limited penetration depth, may therefore also be used in areas where there is a risk of perforation
Minimal carbonization, better wound healing
Non-contact procedure, therefore no adhesion of the probe to the tissue
Axial, radial or lateral application possible
Cost-efficient equipment
