Abstract
Intralesional cryotherapy is inferior to keloid excision followed by brachytherapy for resistant keloids. In primary keloids, intralesional cryotherapy reduced keloid volume and, therefore, may be used in these patients and specific cases. Primary keloid group size was too small to draw valid conclusions, further research on the efficacy of intralesional cryotherapy for primary keloids is warranted.
