  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Cryosurgery was performed in 28 patients of neoplasmas and ulcers of head and neck. Most patients with head and neck cancer referred for cryotherapy have already had surgery and/or radiation therapy.

 Malignant tumors less than 1.5 cm were successfully treated by cryosurgery. However, most malignant tumors larger than 1.5 cm could not entirely be cured by cryosurgery alone. Recurrent primary tumors, which have already undergone a full course of radiation therapy, could be treated merely palliatively to rid patients of gross tumor, slough and oder. Benign tumors such as hemangioma and papilloma were destroyed immediately after cryotherapy. They all disappeard in a couple weeks after cryosurgery without other treatment. Cryosurgery was also effective in the treatment of non-specific granulomas and ulcers of the oral cavity.

 It was concluded that cryosurgery can certainly be used as a primary modality in the treatment of benign tumors and non-specific granulomas and ulcers of the head and neck.
