Abstract
Purpose. To describe a clinical case of successful application of ligh t-oxygen therapy (LOT) for treating a patient with a cherry angioma.
Materials and methods. The publication presents a clinical case of successful application of LOT irradiation in the absorption spectrum of endogenous oxygen with its transfer into singlet state for treating a cherry angioma. Russian-made diode laser “Super Seb” with wavelength close to 1265 nm (manufacturer LLC “New Surgical Technologies”, Moscow), laser power from 0 to 3 Wt was used as a source of laser light. In the described case, irradiation power was 2.4 Wt; power density – 0.76 W/cm2; exposure dose – 365 J/cm2; maximal surface temperature during session – 38 °C. Temperature was measured with a non–contact infrared thermometer ELARI SmartCare model YC-E13 (manufactured by Zhengyang Yuncheng Medical Technology Co. Ltd., China) to eliminate the thermal effect.
Results. A complete clinical remission was achieved after one LOT session.
Conclusions. Light-oxygen therapy in patients with cherry angiomas is an effective and safe curative technique.
