Abstract
Surgical smoke also referred to as cautery smoke is a gaseous mixture produced during surgical procedures where there is ablation, cutting, coagulation, desiccation or vaporization of the tissue. In a true sense "surgical smoke" refers to surgically generated gaseous contents. The surgical smoke results from the destruction of bones and tissues, causing microscopic particles to get suspended in the environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
