Gynaecology:

Cryosurgery is a well-established treatment method that uses low temperatures to destroy lesions. As a result of freezing the lesion, spontaneous processes of destruction and removal of pathological tissues immediately occur. After the treatment, the tissue is free of cavities and scars. The method is performed on patients in treatment rooms and in most cases does not require anesthesia.

Indications in Gynaecology:

cervical ectopia

polypoid mucosal hyperplasia,

nieprawidłowe obrazy kolposkopowe z negatywnym wynikiem cytologii i histologii(poletkowanie, punkcikowanie, nietypowa strefa regeneracji, itp.),

inflammation of the cervix of uterus with typical squamous epithelium,

typical papillomas and genital warts of the vulva,

cervical and vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia CIN (VIN) I ÷ II,

Benefits of cryosurgery in gynecology:

Unlike other methods, the tissue necrosis zone does not increase on the second day after the procedure. It is exactly as planned and corresponds to the boundaries of the frozen area. In the case of coagulation methods (laser, LOOP, RF), the burnt tissue is more deeply separated than it was visible during the procedure.

Cryosurgical treatment of cervical pathology is not associated with the risk of endometriosis! The frozen area remains covered with epithelium, which acts as a biological dressing.

A wide selection of probes allows you to treat any part of the genital tract, e.g. the cervix, which is very difficult, if not impossible, to treat with photocoagulation or laser.

Unlike photocoagulation, electrocoagulation and laser vaporization, cryotherapy treatments are smoke-free. Extremely high temperatures produce smoke containing biological material and an unpleasant odor. This leads to contamination of the treatment area. Smoke often contains the genome of viruses, such as HPV, which pose a risk of respiratory infection to people nearby. Cryotherapy treatments do not contaminate the room with vaporized tissue and smoke, so there is no risk of HPV infection.

Cryoprobes

The special shape of the cryoprobes enables complete freezing of the vagina, vault, cervix and uterine cavity, as well as the labia, anus and any part of the skin. The probe adheres to the tissue and lowers its temperature. The frozen tissue margin is formed in about 2 minutes. After freezing, the probe heats up in a few seconds. The working part of the probe is adapted to various shapes and sizes of lesions. It is covered with gold to increase its efficiency and durability. Parts of the probe that are not in contact with the tissue remain warm throughout the procedure, reducing the risk of freezing other tissues. Easy and convenient sterilization of the probe in steam.

Cryosurgery in ophthalmology

Cryosurgery, also known as cryotherapy in ophthalmology, is a recognized treatment method that uses very low temperatures to treat eye disorders in children and adults. This method uses special cryosurgical probes that enable precise freezing of specific areas of eye tissues, leading to their destruction, repair or controlled damage. It is a minimally invasive method used e.g. in the treatment of retinal diseases, glaucoma, eyelid diseases or some eye cancers. Cryosurgery in ophthalmology is an effective and safe method of treatment, especially in cases where other methods may not bring the expected results or are more invasive

Indications for cryosurgery in ophthalmology:

viral lesions on the cornea,

dislocated lenses,

eyelid skin problems,

cryoepilation of ingrown eyelashes,

retinopathies of prematurity,

cryotherapy of retinal tumors,

glaucoma (cryocycloapplication),

retinoblastoma,

retinal detachment (cryopexy).

Benefits of Cryosurgery/Cryotherapy in Ophthalmology

Minimally invasive – Cryosurgery is a minimally invasive procedure, which means that it does not require large incisions or complicated surgical procedures. This reduces the risk of complications, as well as the recovery time.

Precise action – thanks to the use of cryogenic probes, the doctor has control over the frozen area, which enables very precise action on specific eye tissues, minimizing damage to healthy structures.

Reduced recovery time – After cryosurgery, patients usually return to normal activities in a short time. Healing is faster compared to traditional surgical operations.

Bloodlessness of the procedure – cryosurgery does not cause bleeding, because the freezing process does not affect the continuity of the tissue and causes narrowing of the blood vessels of the lesion and surrounding tissues.

Lower risk of infections – cryosurgery does not involve cutting tissues or open wounds, reducing the risk of infection after surgery compared to traditional surgery.

Possibility of repeating the procedure – in the absence of a complete effect of the procedure or the need to treat a larger area, cryosurgery can be repeated, which gives the doctor more flexibility.

Cryosurgical probes

Special shapes of cryoprobes allow for precise and fast procedures regardless of the location of the lesion: eyelids, retina, cornea, etc. The probe adheres to the tissue and lowers its temperature in just a few seconds. The working part of the probe is covered with gold to increase its efficiency, durability and septicity. Parts of the probe that do not come into contact with the tissue remain warm throughout the procedure, which reduces the risk of freezing other tissues. Easy and convenient sterilization of the probe in an autoclave.

Cryosurgery in laryngology

A modern approach to the treatment of chronic rhinitis and other ENT diseases

The Cryo-S Electric II is a recognized and multi-specialty cryosurgery device developed by Metrum Cryoflex, a global leader in cold treatment technology. In combination with dedicated probes, it enables precise, minimally invasive treatment of many ENT diseases, including chronic, allergic and non-allergic rhinitis.

Applications of cryosurgery in otorhinolaryngology:

Cryosurgery, or cold treatment, uses the controlled and precise action of low temperatures to destroy pathological tissues. It is a bloodless method, which does not cause scarring, and affects the strengthening of autoimmune processes by the body undergoing cold treatment.

In otolaryngology it is used, among others, in:

Treatment of chronic allergic and non-allergic, vasomotor rhinitis.

Reduction of nasal turbinate hypertrophy.

Chronic tonsillectomy – an alternative to classical tonsillectomy in children and adults.

Chronic tonsillar hypertrophy – reduction in volume and improvement of airway patency without the need for their removal.

Recurrent nosebleeds (hemorrhagic rhinitis) – sealing of blood vessels and reduction of bleeding tendency.

Supporting the treatment of small cancerous lesions of the larynx and throat.

Rhinitis – the scale of the problem

Allergic rhinitis (AR) affects around 400 million people worldwide and its incidence is increasing with urbanisation and environmental pollution. In the U.S., 10–30% of adults and up to 40% of children are affected, making AR the fifth most common chronic disease. Non-allergic rhinitis also presents a significant clinical challenge, often requiring chronic pharmacological treatment. Cryosurgery can be an effective alternative in cases where drug therapy is ineffective, requires escalating doses, or causes side effects such as drug-induced rhinitis. It can be used in an outpatient setting or intraoperatively.

Mechanism of action in rhinitis:

The cryosurgery procedure involves local freezing of the nasal mucosa using a probe powered by carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide. Low temperatures cause controlled nerve damage, leading to and reduction of pathological symptoms.

Treatment protocol:

Patient preparation – the procedure is performed in an outpatient setting, usually under local anesthesia or intraoperatively in the operating theater.

Insertion of the cryosurgical probe into the nasal cavity.

Cold application – freezing the nerve takes several tens of seconds, and the procedure can be repeated several times in one session at different places along the nerve.

Post-procedure period – anatomical regeneration of the nerve occurs spontaneously within a few weeks after the procedure. Reduction of functional symptoms of rhinitis occurs after the post-procedure swelling subsides.

Repeatability – if the first treatment is effective, the procedure can be safely repeated if symptoms recur.

Dedicated rhinitis probe: L-30/135/50/RF

Engineers from the Research and Scientific Departments of Metrum Cryoflex have developed a specialized probe for the treatment of rhinitis, enabling precise operation in the back of the nasal cavity – a key place for reducing symptoms.

Key features of the probe:

Precise targeting of overactive nerves responsible for rhinitis, congestion of the mucous membrane and drainage of secretions down the back of the throat.

The low weight and ergonomics of the probe allow for quick and precise placement, regardless of the probe's position during freezing.

The quality of freezing is independent of the angle of the probe during the procedure.

The probe's operating time (freezing time) is not limited by the capacity of the gas container. The probe can perform any number of freezing cycles without the need to replace the gas during each treatment.

The probe's operating algorithm is stored in its microchip, requiring no manual settings. After installing the probe, the physician only decides on the freezing time.

The possibility of using various treatment algorithms (time intervals, number of freezing points) is not limited by the capacity of the gas container.

Full control of the freezing zone – the design of the golden freezing part of the probe together with the Cryo-S Electric II control program minimizes the risk of insufficient or excessive freezing.

The time it takes to thaw the probe from the tissue after freezing is completed is only a few seconds.

The probe is reusable for a specified period of time (environmentally friendly) – can be steam sterilized, which reduces operating costs.

Economical procedure - the cost of the procedure can be up to 70% lower compared to the cost of cryosurgery with disposable probes.
