New JAVMA data on BOAS staphylectomy technique outcomes (413 dogs, 2012–2024).

Reported major complication rates:
- CO2 laser: 12.9%
- Cut-and-sew: 20.2%
- BVSD (LigaSure): 18.3%

That’s about:
- 36% fewer major complications with CO2 laser vs cut-and-sew
- 30% fewer with CO2 laser vs BVSD (LigaSure)

Proud note: the study's co-author, Dr. Eric Hans, has an Aesculight CO2 laser on site, a predecessor platform to today’s VetScalpel systems.
