Cryosurgery is a therapeutic modality useful for treating cutaneous benign, premalignant, and malignant lesions. It consists of lowering lesional temperature below a critical level to cause its destruction. Lowering skin temperatures without the intent to directly cause lesional destruction (to trigger an immune mechanism, for example) is termed cryotherapy.
冷冻手术是一种用于治疗皮肤良性、癌前和恶性病变的治疗方式。它包括将病变部位的温度降至临界水平以下以导致其破坏。在无意直接导致病变破坏(例如触发免疫机制)的情况下降低皮肤温度被称为冷冻疗法。
