Type of article: Article
Summary
CRYOTHERAPY HAS BEEN SHOWN TO BE AN EFFECTIVE METHOD OF PALLIATION FOR RECURRENT HEAD AND NECK TUMOURS. CRYOTHERAPY UNITS, HOWEVER, ARE EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE, A FACTOR THAT IS SIGNIFICANT FOR OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGISTS IN OTHER THAN LARGE ACADEMIC CENTERS WHERE UTILIZATION JUSTIFIES SUCH AN EXPENDITURE. A SIMPLY CONSTRUCTED, EFFECTIVE, AND INEXPENSIVE CRYOPROBE IS DESCRIBED WHICH CAN BE USED BY ANY PRACTITIONER IN THE CARE OF RECURRENT HEAD AND NECK TUMOURS.
