How much is cryosurgery

summary

My wife's thigh wound had not healed completely because of her injury before, and then she was treated with cryosurgery. The prognosis was quite good. Now let's see how much it costs to do cryosurgery.

How much is cryosurgery

First of all: the specific cost is difficult to determine, which should be different according to the level of the hospital and the city. Can communicate with qualified hospitals to understand the treatment costs.

Secondly, cryosurgery uses special instruments with liquid nitrogen (about - 180 ℃) to rapidly reduce the local temperature to destroy the diseased tissues without damaging the surrounding normal tissues

Finally, the disadvantage of cryosurgery is that there may be residual tumor cells at the edge of the frozen area, which may become the source of recurrence; too large a frozen area may cause serious complications such as organ dehiscence and "cold shock".

matters needing attention

After cryotherapy, the wound should be kept clean and dry. Try not to touch water within a week to let the scab fall off naturally. The scab can not be removed by scratching, tearing or scrubbing, which is not conducive to the healing of the wound.
