Purpose!#!The aim of this study was to compare the enucleation performances of four different types of laser devices in an ex-vivo experiment: a novel, pulsed Tm:YAG solid-state laser evaluation model (p-Tm:YAG), chopped thulium fibre laser (TFL), low-power Ho:YAG laser (LP-Ho:YAG), and a high-power Ho:YAG laser (HP-Ho:YAG).!##!Methods!#!Our primary aim was to endoscopically separate the fascial layers of a porcine belly using laser fibres within a time period of 60 s. The size of a 'tissue pocket' was assessed numerically. The enucleation characteristics reflecting the surgeon's experience were evaluated via the NASA Task Load Index (TLX) questionnaire and a questionnaire based on Likert scale.!##!Results!#!HP-Ho:YAG achieved with the available laser settings the largest overall 'tissue pocket' (31.5 cm!##!Conclusion!#!We are the first to compare different laser devices and settings in an ex-vivo study. We found that the surgeons were most satisfied with the HP-Ho:YAG laser device, followed by the p-Tm:YAG. These findings could be highly relevant for future research and for the practical utilisation of laser systems in endourology.
