  Abstract: Cryoablation is a minimally invasive tumor therapy for patients with early-stage tumors as well as those with advanced tumors that cannot be surgically removed. In addition to causing necrosis and apoptosis of tumor tissues, cryoablation promotes the release of tumor self-antigens into the bloodstream, including damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMP) and tumor-specific antigens, which activate the host immune system to trigger an anti-tumor immune response, which may lead to primary tumor regression. However, this distant effect is not effective in inhibiting the growth of metastatic tumors. In recent years, immunotherapy is one of the most important means of tumor treatment, which can effectively activate the patients own immune system. Due to the complexity of the tumor immune microenvironment, immune-related adverse events, and the multifactorial mechanisms affecting the immune response, immunotherapeutic monotherapies have not yet demonstrated satisfactory efficacy in some clinical applications. This article reviews the progress of cryoablation-induced immune effects and combined immunotherapy.
