| Abstract: | PURPOSE: To present the value of radiosurgery in oculoplastic procedures. METHODS: My experience of 3 years and approximately 1000 oculoplastic procedures using radiosurgery was synthesized. The radiosurgical techniques that I have found useful are presented. CONCLUSIONS: Radiosurgery is an excellent surgical tool for performing oculoplastic procedures because it coagulates blood vessels as it cuts through tissue. This allows less bleeding during surgery, which translates in better visualization of the tissue planes and a more rapid procedure. |
