Abstract

The purpose of the reported study was to correlate the cytologic and colposcopic patterns with the histopathologic diagnosis. This was accomplished in 81 young females who underwent direct colposcopic biopsy because of suspicious appearance of the cervix and abnormal or suspicious cytology. Among them 17 were intrauterine DES-exposed females. The results of our study showed that the white epithelium plus punctuation, punctation alone, white gland openings, mosaism, white epithelium plus mosaism, white epithelium, and atypical vessels were the mot common findings compatible with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Cytology and colposcopy together as diagnostic procedures were the most suitable and successful combination for the diagnosis of CIN in young patients with suspicious appearance of the cervix.
