FREE WEBINAR – The Urogenital Surgery: Pearls and Pitfalls
June 7, 2022

The consequence of using standard surgical instruments while performing these procedures is significant bleeding. Poor visibility increases surgical time and can result in increased postoperative complications.
Learn how surgical lasers are enabling practitioners of every skill level to perform common surgeries with increased visualization, and excellent hemostasis that greatly improves surgical precision.
