The accuracy of intraoperative frozen pathology section can reach more than 95%, but depending on the site selected for sectioning and the level of observation, intraoperative frozen pathology examination still has some errors, so it needs to be reviewed periodically after surgery.
Intraoperative cryopathology refers to local sampling of the lesion site, or suspected tumor tissue, during surgery and frozen sectioning. After the localized sample is completely frozen, it can be finely sectioned to make an observation sample for pathological examination.
Intraoperative frozen pathology is a demanding procedure, and it is usually necessary to provide rapid diagnostic results within 30 minutes to help complete the surgery. Therefore, the results of intraoperative frozen pathology have a certain degree of error, but the accuracy rate can generally reach more than 95%.
Generally, after intraoperative frozen pathology examination and surgical resection and other operations, it is necessary to carry out regular postoperative review, and with the results of imaging for comprehensive diagnosis.
When performing intraoperative cryopathologic examination, one should communicate with the doctor in advance to clarify the specific operation steps.
