title: Cryosurgery for the urethral syndrome: preliminary communication.
abstract: A method has been devised for treating the urethral syndrome by cryosurgery using a special applicator. The results in the first 35 cases are presented and compared with a similar group of women treated by urethral dilatation. The cryosurgical method has proved to be successful and free of complications. The study is being continued.
