Advancements in the Management of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia: A Comprehensive Review.

Abstract

Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) represents a significant precursor to cervical cancer, posing a considerable threat to women's health globally. This comprehensive review examines recent advancements in the management of CIN, encompassing screening, diagnosis, and treatment modalities. The etiology and pathogenesis of CIN are explored alongside an analysis of traditional and emerging screening techniques, including liquid-based cytology and molecular biomarkers. Treatment options, from minimally invasive procedures to immunotherapy approaches, are evaluated for efficacy and potential impact on patient outcomes. Furthermore, this review highlights the implications of these findings for clinical practice, emphasizing the importance of staying abreast of evolving guidelines and integrating innovative strategies into routine care. Recommendations for future research and practice are provided, emphasizing personalized approaches, disparities in access to care, and the exploration of novel therapeutic avenues. By addressing these challenges and opportunities, this review aims to contribute to the ongoing efforts to mitigate the burden of CIN and cervical cancer, ultimately improving women's health outcomes worldwide.
