  • Title: The cryosurgical treatment of intraepithelial neoplasia.
    Author: Henriksen HM.
    Journal: Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand; 1979; 58(3):271-4. PubMed ID: 484219.
    Abstract:
    At the Finseninstituttet and the Radium Centre in Copenhagen, from 1971-1975 inclusive, cryosurgery was carried out altogether 59 times on 57 patients. Only 8 patients showed histopathological changes in the biopsies sufficient to indicate conization. Hysterectomy was carried out on 8 patients. In 7 of these the removed uteri showed either no malignant changes or changpy. Invasive growth was discovered only in 1 patient, who later underwent a total hysterectomy by the Wertheim method. A biopsy on 1 patient with carcinoma in situ, suspected invasive growth, was treated with radium.
