Interventions
The appropriate cryoprobe (10G or 13G) will be selected depending on the size of the tumor. After injecting local anesthesia, the cryoprobe will be inserted along the longest diameter of the lesion. The tip of the needle will be advanced so that the freezing center is located in the middle of the tumor. Two freezing cycles will be performed, separated by a thawing cycle, all three of the same duration, which depends on the size of the tumor. The goal is a freezing volume with a lethal zone covering the lesion and a safety margin of at least 1 cm. Ultrasound allows real-time monitoring of the expansion of the ice ball during cryoablation. To avoid burning the skin, we will inject warm sterile saline solution when the distance between the ice and the skin surface is less than 0.5 cm
