Electrocoagulotomy

Electrocoagulotomy is a treatment method in which electric current is used to coagulate and destroy tissue. This method is often used in surgery to remove tumors, scars and other formations on the skin and soft tissues.

The operating principle of the electrocoagulotomy device is based on the use of high-frequency current, which passes through the electrode and causes heating and coagulation of tissue. Coagulation occurs due to the evaporation of water from cells and proteins, which leads to the destruction of tissues and their rapid coagulation.

Electrocoagulotomy can be used to remove skin growths such as moles, papillomas and warts. This method is also used to treat scars, scars and other skin damage.

One of the main advantages of electrocoagulotomy is its speed and accuracy. After the procedure, there are no scars or other marks on the skin, which makes it more attractive to patients. In addition, the electrocoagulotomy device can be used to coagulate tissue in hard-to-reach places, which makes it more versatile and effective.

However, like any other treatment method, electrocoagulotome has its limitations and risks. For example, the use of high-frequency electrical current can cause burns and damage to surrounding tissue, especially if the procedure is performed on sensitive skin. Also, electrocoagulotomy devices can be expensive to use and require special skills from the doctor.

In general, electrocoagulotomy therapy is an effective and safe method for treating various skin and soft tissue diseases. However, before carrying out the procedure, you must consult with your doctor and make sure that it is safe and effective for your particular case.



**Electrocoagulotomy** - in surgery, the effect on tissues carried out by electric current; the use of electric current during surgical operations. Electrosurgery.

What is electrocoagulation:

- E**electrocoagulation (coagulation)** or **electric burn** is a process by which an electric current causes local heating of a biomaterial to a temperature harmful to cells and microorganisms. Most often used in medicine. Energy is characterized by the fact that in an electrical discharge (spark), ionized particles (ions and electrons) heat the medium to tens of thousands of degrees Celsius. - As a result of heating, a small volume of material melts, followed by rapid evaporation of the remelted metal. The processes occur within a few microns.
