Abstract:
:Hepatic cryotherapy is increasingly used in the treatment of patients with multiple hepatic metastases, particularly from colorectal cancer. The Cryotech LCS 2000 system, with insulated shaft-circulated liquid nitrogen probes, was designed for this purpose and was evaluated on the bench and in an animal model. The 9-mm probe was considerably more effective than the 5-mm probe when judged on time to create an iceball of a given diameter. The use of thawing gas reduced the time until the probe could be removed from 25 to 5 min but heated gas only produced a further reduction of 2 min. In the animal model, significant reduction in treatment times occurred with vascular inflow occlusion. The zone of necrosis as a percentage of the original iceball diameter was significantly higher following a twin freeze/thaw cycle. The relationship of the edge of the iceball to the eventual zone of hepatic necrosis was studied using different unabsorbable markers. India ink and sutures proved unreliable but a Teflon cannula was more successful and the margin was only of the order of 2 mm. The discrepancy between this observation and the percentage of the original iceball diameter which apparently becomes necrotic (64 and 82%) for single- and double-freeze lesions, respectively, suggests that the cryolesion undergoes shrinkage within 1 month and that the diameter of necrosis underestimates the true zone of destruction.
