          Abstract

          The physical and clinical features of a number of laser energy sources presently being used in plastic and endonasal surgery, such as the Nd:YAG, KTP, Ho:YAG, Er:YAG and CO<sub>2</sub> lasers, are emphasized. Particular attention is paid to the Nd:YAG laser and to an Nd:YAG laser-powered quartz laser scalpel.

          Fibrogenic cytokines: the role of immune mediators in the development of scar tissue.

          E. Kovacs (1990)
          A variety of diseases that are characterized by fibrosis share common features including the proliferation of fibroblasts and the deposition of extracellular matrix. Fibrosis often begins as an inflammatory reaction with leukocyte infiltration followed by the elaboration of cytokines. Here, Elizabeth J. Kovacs argues that the aberrant production of these mediators sustains the connective tissue accumulation that results in permanent alteration in tissue structure and function.
