“…Since then, advancements in cryosurgical technology have allowed for the use of much colder temperatures (as cold as −196°C) for tissue ablation. In addition, the development of technology that uses nitrous oxide or carbon dioxide as a cryogen (a substance used to produce very low temperatures) [2] has enabled reversible destruction of nerves, also known as cryoneurolysis. These technologies employ an established mechanism of action and have been used commercially since the early 1960s [3].…”

“…Further, unlike other treatment strategies, molecular drug resistance can be overcome with thermal injury [10]. Although cryoablation is not a mainstream thermal technique for PaCa, it is a primary treatment option in other cancers [6,[16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. In 2008, the American Urological Association published a best practice statement on prostate cancer, recommending cryosurgery as a primary treatment option [23].…”

“…19 As early as 1851, Archibald Arnott, a surgeon in the service of the East Indian Trade Company, described the use of ice-cold salt solution and crushed ice at temperatures ranging from Ϫ18°C to Ϫ24°C as an adjuvant treatment for advanced-stage breast or cervical carcinoma. 19 Since then, this concept has been applied to soft tissue and parenchymatous tumors in the liver, prostate, skin, breast, and cervix.…”
