Effect of low-level laser therapy in the myonecrosis induced by Bothrops jararacussu snake venom.
Only LLLT significantly reduced myonecrosis of the envenomed muscle, suggesting that LLLT is a potentially therapeutic approach for treating the local effects of B. jararacussu venom. Multiple abstracts present additional material.
OPEN FILENEW TREATMENT OF CHRONIC PROLIFERATIVE AND OBSTRUCTIVE OTITIS EXTERNA IN DOGS WITH COMBINATION OF HARD, PHOTODYNAMIC AND LOW-LEVEL LASERS
It was found that a combination of four different lasers could eliminate this serious and painful disease in dogs. The PD therapy reduced bacterial infection and improved conditions for surgery. Laser cut surfaces regenerated quickly without scarring or complications. Wound regeneration with LLLT was excellent in all cases. Functional and anatomical integrity was preserved, and patients were able to continue their routine life. In each case, proliferative tissue was eliminated completely.
OPEN FILEEfficacy of low-level laser therapy on hair regrowth in dogs with noninflammatory alopecia: a pilot study.
Our clinical and histological data document promising effects of LLLT on hair regrowth in CNA. Further studies investigating the biological mechanism underlying the effect of LLLT on hair follicle cycling are warranted.
