Eighteen patients with digital mucoid cysts and 31 with myxoid cysts of the oral mucosa were treated by cryosurgery using an intermittent spray technique. Double freeze-thaw cycle (FTC) is recommended for successful treatment of digital mucoid cysts, as the recurrence rate was fairly high when only a single FTC was used. This does not necessarily apply to oral mucous cysts, where the cure rate was nearly 100%, whether a single or double FTC was used. We conclude that liquid-nitrogen-spray cryosurgery is an effective alternative in treating mucous cysts.
