The invention is primarily intended to provide a laser medical apparatus which radiates a patient\s diseased spot with laser beams issued from a source and introduced from the distal end face of an optical fiber unit through a hand piece set at the output side. The invention thus provides a laser medical apparatus characterized in that the optical fiber unit comprises a large number of fibers each having a polygonal section. A protective board prepared from a laser-permeable material is detachably fitted to the laser output end face of the hand piece and laser beams issued from the source with a prescribed distribution of energy intensities are conducted through the optical fiber unit composed of fibers having a polygonal section for equalizing the energy intensity distribution laser beams are radiated over a broad area without irregularities and medical treatment can be undertaken uniformly in a short time. The protective board detachably fitted to the hand piece enables laser beams to be radiated with the hand piece in contact with the patient\s diseased spot, so the hand piece can be accurately held during the medical operation and an efficacious medical treatment is ensured.

A laser medical apparatus, comprising: a laser beam source for issuing a laser beam; an optical fiber unit having a plurality of optical fibers each having polygonal cross section, the optical fibers having input end faces through which the laser beam from the source is introduced into the optical fibers and output distal ends through which the laser beam is issued from the optical fibers; a hand piece provided at the output distal ends of the optical fibers, the hand piece having therein a plurality of linear, opague spaced-apart projections, said projections defining therebetween a plurality of linear first grooves of rectangular cross section extending longitudinally with respect to said hand piece with said optical fibers being inserted within said first grooves to terminate in a laser beam output end face; and a protective board formed of a laser beam permeable material, which is detachably provided on the laser beam output end face of the hand piece, thereby radiating the laser beam from the output distal ends to a patient through the hand piece and the protective board.
