Cryosurgery technique is an established clinical modality which offers ENT surgeons a unique tool to eradicate many benign as well as pre–malignant lesions in the ENT spectrum. Its special role in chronic vasomotor rhinitis is well established.

Cryosurgery technique Tissue destruction by local application of a refrigerant offers clear advantages over other invasive methods. Its inherent anesthetic and haemostatic properties make it suitable for outpatient use. The tissue destruction is essentially well circumscribed, leaving a cryolesion characterized by healing without scarring and complications.

Distinct benefits to patients

• Cryo applications under local anesthesia.
• No scarring.
• No bleeding during and after the procedures.
• Palliation of painful neoplasms.
• Minimum pain controlled with non–narcotic analgesics.
• Well accepted by elderly and debilitated patients.
• No unpleasant odor of burning tissue.
