Investigation of abnormal histology and cytology of cervix

Background and Objective: Pap smear is the first diagnostic step of pre-invasive lesion. Its sensitivity is 85%. Colposcopic and histologic evaluation for diagnosis is recommended. The aim of this study was to compare abnormal cytologic and histologic findings. Methods: This cross-sectional study wa...

In patients with abnormal cytology, cervical biopsy with colposcopic examination was performed. Findings: Among 7050 patients, 74 (1.04% cases had shown abnormal Pap smear that 58 (79%) were with reactive atypia and 21% were with cancerous and invasive lesions. Prevalence of cancerous lesion was 0.22%. Abnormal histologic results were in 9 (12.2%) cases (LSIL 5.4%, HSIL 1.4%, carcinoma 5.4%).
