CRYO-S Mini
CRYO-S ® Mini device is intended for local, rapid and efficient freezing of tissues using a wide range of contact cryoapplicators and unique spraying cryoapplicator, which with continuous cooling adjustment permits freezing of very small lesions (several cubic millimetres) as well as very large ones (several dozens cubic centimetres) by directly spraying liquid nitrous oxide on treated lesion. The apparatus is used for small surgeries. The device requires no electric power supply. All functions of the apparatus are perfomed pneumatically.
CRYO-S ® Mini device is ready for operation within several seconds. Tip of a probe achieves min. temperature in 2 to 10 seconds upon pressing the foot switching controler. Releasing the pedal causes return to temperature above 0oC in 3 to 3 seconds.

Effects of cryosurgery
Cryoprobes
Developed by METRUM CRYOFLEX spray probe system dedicated for dermatosurgery can be used with unique cryoapplicator SD 10. Cryoprobe SD 10 is a spray type cryoprobe. This spray type cryoprobe can replace all contact type cryoprobes except the needle type. SD 10 cryoprobe can be used more efficiently in comparison with traditional contact type (even liquid nitrogen probes) because of:- possibility of tissue moistening with liquid N2O – accumulation of liquid N2O intensifies cryodestruction (1 drop of liquid N20 is twice as powerful as 1 drop of liquid nitrogen),
- possibility of tissue’s micro cracks penetration.
This is only in the world, patented open type cryosurgical cryoprobe with fluent, adjustable freezing power.
Reusable spray type cryoprobe can be used with:
CRYO-S Mini also uses contact cryoprobes in dermatosurgery. All of the contact probes are also reusable, easy to sterilize and easy in exploitation.
Procedure
Cryosurgery is a recognized treatment procedure using low temperatures to destroy lesions. CRYO-S units allow freezing of tissue on a measured area and depth. Thanks to the special shapes of the cryoprobes, full scope of freezing within the area of vagina, fornix, cervix and cavum uteri is possible, as well as within the area of labia, anus and any part of the skin. In gynecology, cryosurgery is commonly used in treatment of: ectopia, polypean and papillomatous hyperplasia of the mucous membrane, metaplasia foci with negative onco-histological result.
Cryosurgical procedures are smokeless, in contrast to photocoagulation, electrocoagulation and laser vaporization. Extremely high temperatures produce smoke containing biological material, and unpleasant odour. It leads to contamination of the treatment field area. The smoke often contains virus genomes, e.g. HPV, which create danger of iatrogenous infection of airpassages of people staying nearby. Cryosurgery procedures do not cause contamination of the room with vaporised tissue and smoke, so there is no risk of HPV infection .
Advantages of cryosugery in Gynecology:
- Contrary to other methods the zone of tissue necrosis does not increase on the second day after treatment. It is exactly as intended, and consistent with the borders of the frozen area. In case of coagulation methods, burn tissue demarcates deeper than can be seen during the procedure (Laser, LOOP, RF).
- Cryosugical treatment of cervix pathologies is not associated with the risk of endometriosis! The frozen area remains covered with epithelium, which plays the role of a biological dressing.
- All cryoprobes are autoclavable.
- A wide variety of probes allows for treatments of any section of genital ducts, e.g.,in the cervix, which is very difficult if not impossible with the use of photocoagulation or laser.
- Cryosurgical treatment is inexpensive and effective. Satisfaction is guaranted by the excellent quality state-of-the-art technology.
Healing
It lasts a few weeks. The place of freezing remains covered with dead epithelium, which plays the role of natural dressing, and then peels off. After reatment, patient experiences metrorrhea-effusion from among frozen epithelium cells. It is not necessary to use any tablets or globules. However, it is advisable to maintain high personal hygiene, and to take showers instead of baths in a tub. Sexual intercourse during the healing period is inadmissible. If a patient visits other doctors during the period following the treatment, she must inform them of the cryosurgery treatment, otherwise a misdiagnosis is possible.
Result
The final result is fully satisfactory. The physiological regeneration of tissue does not leave scars. The sore place becomes healthy, fully elastic. For this reason cryosurgery is permitted in nulligravidas cases. Photo documentation of the changed place before and after cryosurgery is advisable as a very good result may give rise to suspicions that there was no pre-existing illness.
Cryoprobes
Developed and patented in Metrum CryoFlex liquifiers system dedicated for gyneacology can be used with uniqe spry type cryoapplicator SG10. It is resusable spray type cryprobe with single use cotton stick and resusable freezing limiters.
SG-10 pen type cryosurgical probes with fluent, adjustable freezing power
Because of that one SG 10 spray type cryoprobe can replace all contact type cryoprobes except the needle type. Spray type cryoprobe can be used more efficiently in comparision to traditional contact probe (even liquid nitrogen probes) because of:
