CERVICAL CYTOLOGY (THE BETHESDA SYSTEM) AND COLPOSCOPIC GUIDED BIOPSY CORRELATION IN NEOPLASTIC CERVICAL LESIONS
Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 8
Abstract
Cervical cancer is a significant health problem worldwide among women. Cancer cervix is the most common cancer in developing countries. It is considered as preventable cancer since there is availability of screening method and effective diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Despite the accuracy and efficacy of cervical cytology in detecting and diagnosing cervical neoplasia it must remain a screening technique with further evaluation based on histologic diagnosis. Objectives of the study are to compare cytology and histopathology of neoplastic cervical lesions and to know the sensitivity and specificity of PAP smear. Present study is undertaken to evaluate the role of cytology and colposcopic guided biopsy in diagnosing neoplastic cervical lesions.
