Intended Use
The BURANE XL is intended to be used in small and large joint arthroscopy, laparoscopic procedures, general surgical procedures for incision/excision, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue and cartilage. All soft tissues encountered in an open surgical procedure are included in this indication such as, skin, cutaneous tissue, subcutaneous tissue, striated and smooth tissue, muscle, cartilage, meniscus, mucous membrane, lymph vessels and nodes, organs and glands. The BURANE XL is indicated for use in skin resurfacing. The BURANE XL is indicated for use in medicine and surgery, in the following medical specialities: Dermatology, Plastic Surgery, Gastroenterology, ENT, Thoracic Surgery, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Ophtalmology & Podiatry.
Device Story
The BURANE XL is an Er:YAG laser system (2.94 µm wavelength) designed for dermatological and aesthetic interventions. It utilizes triple-mode technology, allowing the physician to select between Ablation Mode, Coagulation Mode, or a combination of both. The device operates by delivering laser energy to target soft tissue; the 2.94 µm wavelength is highly absorbed by water, enabling precise ablation with minimal thermal damage to surrounding tissue, thereby promoting optimal wound healing and reducing scar formation. The treating physician selects parameters including spot size, laser energy, pulse sequence, and coagulation function to adjust for individual patient requirements. It is intended for use by trained medical professionals in clinical settings across multiple surgical specialties.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data presented; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Er:YAG laser system; wavelength 2.94 µm. Features triple-mode technology (Ablation, Coagulation, and combination). Adjustable parameters include spot size, laser energy, and pulse sequence. Designed for dermatological and surgical soft tissue applications.
Indications for Use
Indicated for surgical incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue and cartilage across various specialties including dermatology, plastic surgery, gastroenterology, ENT, thoracic surgery, oral/maxillofacial surgery, ophthalmology, and podiatry. Specific applications include skin resurfacing, wrinkle treatment, epidermal nevi, telangiectasia, spider veins, actinic keratoses, scar revision, debulking benign tumors, decubitus ulcers, genitourinary lesions (condyloma, polyps), gynecological conditions (CIN, adhesions, cysts), ENT lesions, oral/glossal lesions, gingivectomy, and podiatric procedures (warts, matrixectomy).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
(1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.
