Warts (Wart) 11/01/1993 - "RESULTS: Complete clearance of warts in patients who received up to six treatments of cryotherapy were observed in 86% of cases and in 70% of patients who received up to six treatments of trichloracetic acid" 04/01/1994 - "This therapy is superior to cryotherapy (CT) in that it is useful for warts on any location, regardless of the number of lesions, and it is good for young children, although the cure rates for CT and GA are almost equal." 08/01/2006 - "Although both duct tape and OTC cryotherapy appear promising new self-treatment options from both a cost and an effectiveness perspective, more research is required to confirm the efficacy of these two methods of wart treatment" 10/01/2001 - "Cryotherapy of viral warts: a sustained 10-s freeze is more effective than the traditional method." 03/01/1995 - "We studied the efficacy, and time to clearance, of more frequent cryotherapy of viral warts, by randomizing 225 patients to receive treatment at 1-, 2- or 3-weekly intervals" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...

3.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 03/01/2007 - "All cryotherapy zones were well defined by CT during ablation as hypodense ice with an average diameter of 5.3 cm, covering an average tumor size of 3.3 cm. Average ablation zone diameters showed significant reduction over time (P < .001), becoming significantly less than the original tumor size by 12 months (P < .05)" 05/01/2006 - "RECENT FINDINGS: As a result of better understanding of tumor cryodestruction at a molecular level, refinements in cryotechniques and improved patient selection, the results of cryotherapy are becoming more promising" 01/12/1980 - "For maximal therapeutic efficacy in any new cancer screening programme, it is advised that a policy of more liberal recourse to cold-knife conization be adopted, cryotherapy being reserved for patients with lesser degrees of CIN, in whom the lesion is confined to the surface epithelium of the ectocervix only" 03/12/2007 - "See and treat' with cryotherapy by nurses under medical supervision is acceptable, safe and effective for cervical cancer prevention in low-resource settings." 01/01/2007 - "Cryotherapy and radiofrequency ablation are minimally invasive and have been shown to be safe and effective in treating tumors up to 3 -4 cm in diameter" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
