title: [Cryosurgery of stage I-II basal cell skin cancer and its effect on various immunologic indices].
abstract: 87 patients were treated by cryosurgery for stage I-II basal cell skin cancer. Changes in immunologic parameters were followed prior to and during surgery in 23 patients. Cryosurgery proved highly effective. Cryodestruction brought about an insignificant suppression of T-lymphocyte system. Most immunologic indexes returned to normal on day 21. Other systems of cellular and humoral immunity were not affected.
