An Inexpensive Cryoprobe for Tumor Cryosurgery
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1972An inexpensive aluminum cryoprobe is described that is effective in head and neck tumor cryosurgery.

A New 20-Gauge Intravitreal Cryoprobe
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1980A new intraocular 20-gauge (0.89-mm) cryoprobe is compatible with the Ocutome-Fragmatome system. The iceball forms only at the tip and there is a rapid freeze and defrost cycle. Actual clinical testing during vitreous surgery showed the probe to be reliable and easy to use.

A 20-Gauge Intravitreal Cryoprobe
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1980A 20-gauge intravitreal cryoprobe designed for endocryopexy during trans pars plana vitrectomy is now available. The probe may also be used for intracapsular cataract extraction and open-sky intravitreal cryopexy.

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1973
To the Editor. —Wirtschafter and Sohmer have documented the electrical hazards of cryoextraction in theArchives(87:117, 1972). A potential mechanical hazard also exists with the same instrument. On July 25, 1972, cataract extraction with the patient under local anesthesia was attempted using the Amoils curved cataract probe.

A Self-Illuminating Intravitreous Cryoprobe
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1968Severe complications associated with the extraction of the dislocated lens have made many surgeons hesitant to operate in such cases. However, with cryoextraction of the lens, using a controllable probe inserted into the eye at ambient (room) temperature, the operative risk is greatly reduced.

Retinal Cryoprobe in Orbital Tumor Management
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1975We used the retinal cryoprobe in the surgical management (biopsy and excision) of orbital and ocular adnexal tumors in four patients. The strong bond between the cryoprobe tip and the tumor allowed application of moderate traction to the tumors, facilitating their removal.

The Application of Cryoprobe Therapy in Orthopedic Oncology
Orthopedics, 2014The cryoprobe is a relatively new surgical tool offering a more selective destruction of unwanted cells. Using expanded versions of basic thermodynamic formulas of conduction and convection, mathematical models are becoming more effective at mapping out the zone of destruction that can be expected when using cryoprobes.

Transbronchial Lung Biopsy Using Cryoprobes
Archivos de Bronconeumología (English Edition), 2010Transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) is a bronchoscopy procedure used to obtain peripheral lung tissue. Small size samples and artefacts lead to variable, and usually poor, diagnostic yield. The use of cryoprobes may enable larger size and better quality biopsy samples to be obtained.

An Inexpensive Effective Cryoprobe for Palliative Care
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1982Cryotherapy has been shown to be an effective method of palliation for recurrent head and neck tumors. Commercially produced cryotherapy units, however, are extremely expensive; a factor that is significant for otolaryngologists in other than large academic centers where utilization justifies such an expenditure.
