Super pulsed power meets efficiency
One laser - multiple indications!
The Pulvis 60+ is a thulium fiber laser (TFL) which can be used both for lithotripsy and for precise soft tissue surgery. Over the last few years, TFL technology has emerged as a new alternative to Holmium:YAG lasers. As well as being particularly suitable for the treatment of stones, the unique benefits of TFL technology also prove their worth in the case of anatomical endoscopic enucleation of the prostate (AEEP) and transurethral (laser) resection of bladder tumors (TUR-B).
One laser - multiple indications
The Pulvis 60+ features an extensive pulse setting range as well as a very uniform pulse profile with adjustable peak power and pulse lengths. These technical properties ensure that the laser is emitted in a uniform and focused manner with very low stone retropulsion. With its extensive, flexible setting range, the Pulvis 60+ is also capable of carrying out stone dusting, popcorning, and fragmentation.

Richard Wolf offers a complete product portfolio within the field of laser lithotripsy and provides users with the right instruments for a whole host of surgical techniques.
The current treatment for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is conventional transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TUR-B). In recent years, however, transurethral en bloc resection of bladder tumors (ERBT) has gained in popularity.
Using TFL technology has the advantage of excellent vaporization and efficient tissue hemostasis. Due to the technical properties of the laser, it is emitted to the tissue in a highly precise and controlled manner.

As a full-range supplier for ERBT, Richard Wolf offers a perfectly coordinated system solution for this indication. Thanks to the new TFL technology combined with photodynamic diagnostics (PDD), Richard Wolf is setting a new standard in the detection and resection of NMIBC.
In recent years, AEEP has proven to be a safe and efficient alternative to transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P) and other procedures for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
The unique properties of TFL make it an appealing alternative to holmium laser enucleation (HoLEP) using a Holmium:YAG laser – previously considered the gold standard. This means that thulium fiber laser enucleation (ThuFLEP) is an option with at least equivalent properties.
