This minimally invasive and cost-effective procedure is valuable for the treatment of many benign, premalignant and certain superficial malignant lesions, and is an alternative for patients who are bedridden, have blood-borne illnesses, or simply do not wish to undergo a surgical excision. As with any procedure, the risks and benefits must be properly explained. Cryosurgery has truly stood the test of time and with proper training may be used to treat a wide variety of cutaneous lesions with ease.
