Is it true that liquid nitrogen cryotherapy kills cancer cells in tumors?
Yes. A reference text states that cryotherapy, including liquid nitrogen applied to skin and delivered by cryoprobes, freezes and kills cancer cells, and peer-reviewed studies report liquid nitrogen cryotherapy eliminating mucosal cancer in a majority of early-stage esophageal cancer patients and treating breast cancer metastases.
