A surgical instrument developed in Argentina, to separate tissues on extensive operations and allows visibility through its own light will be presented during the 38th International Congress of Cosmetic Surgery, which began today in the city of Buenos Aires.
The creator, Marcelo Bernstein (Member of the Argentine Society of Plastic Surgery) defined as a "three-dimensional brilliant control device" will present tomorrow to his colleagues inside Argentina and physicians abroad attending to the meeting on next Saturday.
The instrument, developed and designed completely in Argentina, "is" is a separator 3D (three dimensions) for use in different types of surgeries, primarily in the aesthetic and to increase breast, buttocks, lifting "and others, said Bernstein.
Unlike other similar tools, this separator has the advantage of allowing a wide field of view, since their support with the tissue (skin, fat, gland, etc.) that contact is minimal, so it does not impair the exercise of power ".
Among the advantages over existing designs, he noted "its broad visibility" is not flat and which allows an excellent coagulation of the blood vessels, preventing bleeding that can later be covered by other common separators.
The valve has a "new-tech ultra-light diodes, which makes unnecessary external light sources or optical fiber tubing and a suction system to absorb vapors and fluids during the operation, in synthesizing a number of instrumental functions once explained.
The professional said: "It is important to disclose that it is a development of Argentina, because they often appear in the national market designs under foreign patents.
"Because of its versatility, this separator" mark a turning point "in several types of surgery," as did the 'fronto light' (lamp that is placed on the head surgeon to illuminate the operative field) developed over half a century by another Argentine, Ricardo Finochietto doctor, said Bernstein.
