Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent and biologically diverse malignancies in women worldwide, encompassing subtypes such as ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), lobular carcinoma, and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). These variants present complex therapeutic challenges. Chemotherapy remains a core treatment modality, particularly in aggressive or advanced stages, yet its systemic toxicity and lack of specificity limit its efficacy. In recent years, laser-based therapies have emerged as adjunctive strategies to enhance therapeutic precision. This review explores breast cancer classification, progression, and treatment, with an emphasis on chemotherapy, and critically examines the emerging role of laser technologies, including low-level laser therapy (LLLT), Photochemotherapy, and Photodynamic Therapy (PDT), as adjunctive or alternative therapeutic options. We highlight the potential of laser to modulate the tumor microenvironment, improve drug delivery, regulate mitochondrial function, and enhance apoptosis. PDT showed promise in activating localized cytotoxic effects while sparing surrounding tissues. However, heterogeneity in laser parameters and treatment protocols remains a significant barrier to clinical translation. This review underscores the translational potential of laser-assisted chemotherapy, identifies current gaps, and suggests future research directions for optimized treatment strategies in breast oncology.

Purpose: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is common in elderly men, causing lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs). The 1470 nm diode laser, with high vaporization efficiency and good hemostasis, is increasingly used for BPH. This study sought to comprehensively evaluate the efficacy and safety of 1470 nm diode laser enucleation of the prostate (DiLEP) forBPH in a prospective, multicenter study.
Methods: Conducted at two hospitals, BPH patients were randomized into two groups. Group A used a new 1470 nm diode laser device (Hefei Han's Kereida), and Group B utilized a conventional and widely validated 1470 nm laser system (Wuhan Qizhi). Prostate volume (PV), maximum flow rate (Qmax), post-void residual (PVR), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), and Quality of Life (QoL) score were measured pre- and post-operatively. Perioperative indices and complications were also recorded.
Results: 143 patients (73 in Group A, 70 in Group B) completed follow-up. Baseline characteristics of two groups were comparable. Vital parameters remained within normal ranges following the surgical procedure. Both groups showed significant improvements in IPSS, QoL, Qmax, and PVR post-operatively, with no significant differences between groups. Complications occurred in 17 patients in Group A and 10 in Group B, all of which resolved spontaneously or were effectively managed with appropriate interventions.
Conclusion: 1470 nm DiLEP is an effective and safe BPH treatment, relieving symptoms with few complications. The new device from Hefei Han's Kereida performed reliably. This laser offers a valuable alternative to BPH surgeries.
