1.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 05/01/2008 - "As such, cryoablation may prove most effective in cancer cells that have not yet progressed to a more resistant AI phenotype, but both generic variants can be fully ablated at sufficiently low temperatures." 01/01/1996 - "These results compare favorably with published results for CT during arterial portography, the current gold standard for liver tumor detection, suggesting that portal-phase IV contrast-enhanced helical CT is an excellent noninvasive preoperative study prior to hepatic resection or cryosurgery." 09/01/2008 - "Cryosurgery has proven effective in managing malignant tracheobronchial tumors, yet its role in benign lesions is not well established" 09/01/1997 - "After cryosurgery, 17 patients had a significant decrease in tumor marker levels (median 77%) and a significant improvement in symptoms" 01/01/1979 - "Excision of the tumor 24 hours after it has been rendered ischemic by either ligation or cryosurgery seems to produce TSTI that is significantly greater than that after excision of viable tumor without prior ligation or cryosurgery; the degree of this immunity is similar to that seen after the tumor is left in situ indefinitely after treatment" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
2.	Prostatic Neoplasms (Prostate Cancer) 08/01/1975 - "The early results in patients treated by cryosurgery indicate that this mode of therapy can be very effective in the ablation of the local lesion and may very well have a useful place in the surgical armamentarium for the management of prostatic cancer." 05/01/2003 - "Recent publications demonstrate durable efficacy for cryoablation, equivalent to other therapies for low-risk disease and possibly superior for moderate- and high-risk prostate cancer" 02/01/1999 - "CONCLUSION: Cryoablation is an imaging-guided percutaneous intervention for prostate cancer that can safely yield disease-free status in a high percentage of patients with localized disease." 06/01/2001 - "We hypothesized that the combination of chemotherapy and cryosurgery would result in enhanced cell death, thereby presenting a more effective treatment of prostate cancer" 02/01/2007 - "CONCLUSIONS: The results of our study have indicated that cryoablation as a primary treatment of localized prostate cancer is effective with acceptable morbidity" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
3.	Carcinoma (Carcinomatosis) 03/01/1991 - "Cryosurgery has previously been used successfully to treat prostatic carcinoma" 09/01/1988 - "Cryosurgery has previously been used successfully to treat prostatic carcinoma" 10/01/1997 - "CONCLUSIONS: As performed in this series cryosurgery was poorly effective for local control of prostatic carcinoma" 05/01/1991 - "Cryosurgery for tongue carcinoma was shown to be effective and safe." 02/15/1991 - "Ultrasound-guided hepatic cryosurgery appears to be an effective treatment for metastatic colon carcinoma to the liver that is unresectable (including patients with bilobar and multiple lesions)" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
4.	Neoplasm Metastasis (Metastasis) 01/01/2008 - "The data from this ten year prospective, randomized clinical trial suggest that hepatic cryosurgery is effective in the treatment of resectable and nonresectable liver metastases" 01/01/2007 - "The data of this 10-year prospective, randomized clinical trial suggest that hepatic cryosurgery is effective in the treatment of resectable and non-resectable liver metastases" 01/01/2007 - "The data of this 10-year prospective, randomized clinical trial suggest that hepatic cryosurgery is effective in the treatment of resectable and non-resectable liver metastases" 09/01/2000 - "CONCLUSION: Cryosurgery may be effective in the treatment of patients with multiple unresectable liver metastases and should be investigated in multimodality treatment programmes." 06/01/2001 - "BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term efficacy of cryosurgery as an adjunct to hepatic resection in patients with colorectal liver metastases not amenable to resection alone" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
5.	Atrial Fibrillation 05/01/2005 - "BACKGROUND: Recent studies have demonstrated that transvenous catheter cryoablation is a safe and effective technique for creating pulmonary veins (PVs) electrical isolation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF)" 11/01/2006 - "CONCLUSIONS: The modified maze procedures using cryoablation are safe and effective in treating chronic atrial fibrillation associated with rheumatic mitral valve disease." 12/01/2007 - "AIMS: The efficacy of epicardial left atrial (LA) cryoablation in eliminating atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients undergoing mitral valve surgery (MVS) is unknown" 06/01/2007 - "OBJECTIVES: In this review the efficacy of the alternative sources of energy (radiofrequency-microwave and cryoablation; (group I) and the classical "cut and sew" Cox-Maze III (group II), which claims a 97-99% sinus rhythm (SR) success rate, were evaluated in the surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF)" 02/26/2008 - "OBJECTIVES: This study was designed to evaluate the long-term effect of segmental pulmonary vein (PV) cryoablation in patients with recent-onset paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF)" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
