The advances in histotechnology over the years have enabled the development of different diagnostic techniques in the pathology practice. These techniques include frozen biopsy; however, in the clinical field use of this diagnostic tool generally unknown. A brief review of their limitations are presented, along with their possible indications, as well as cases in which frozen biopsy provides important information to the clinician to guide therapeutic changes.
