Summary

This study tests whether freezing small, low-risk breast tumors (cryoablation) is as effective as surgery. About 234 women with early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer will receive cryoablation plus standard treatments like radiation. The goal is to see if this less invasive approach reduces side effects, improves quality of life, and avoids general anesthesia while still controlling the disease.
