Popis: The work presents an experience with cryosurgical treatment of malignant and benign tumors of the liver in 110 patients. The cryosurgery was performed using an original apparatus. The methods of resection of the liver using cryosurgical instruments are described which reduce the intraoperative blood loss and facilitate visualization of the vascular-tubular structures along the resection line. The use of low temperatures allows optimization and extension of indications for operative interventions. Cryodestruction of the residual portion of the liver tissue after resection can be taken as a subsidiary means for prevention of dissemination of tumor cells.
