The paper describes the first experience in using robotic CO laser at the Department of Head and Neck Tumors, Moscow City Cancer Hospital Sixty-Two. With advances in endoscopic techniques and anesthesiology, there have been new possibilities of usingdirect (rigid) larygoscopy in conjunction with laser systems.The Lumеnis laser assembly consists of three interconnected components: a videocamera, an operating microscope, and directly CO laser. It includes a computer system that sets a program to perform an operation.The heart of the laser system is a scanning Digital Acu Blade micromanipulator. This unique assembly makes itpossible to control the area and depth of incision, to cut intricate shapes in relation to the surface anatomy, and to precisely control ablation and hemostasis. The effect of tissue carbonization during surgery is minimal at the expense of the physical characteristics and different modes of radiation. It is noted that this system allows organ-sparing treatment in cancer patients and their prompt rehabilitation after surgical interventions.

Abstract
The treatment choice of differentiated thyroid cancer resistant to therapy 131I to be restricted just to systemic methods. Traditional chemotherapy demonstrated no clinically relevant effectiveness but high toxicity. With the introduction into clinical practice of multi-kinase inhibitor was able to significantly improve treatment outcomes.
The paper demonstrated two patients with the incurable of differentiated thyroid cancer resistant to therapy 131I. All patients received Nexavar (sorafenib). Its therapeutic effectiveness varied from partial response to long-term stabilization.
