Epidemiological studies have shown a strong correlation between sexual age and certain HPV infections [4] and patients were sometimes referred by various public and private health facilities
Summary
MethodsThe cervico-uterine smear or cervical smear is a collection of cells from the cervix in order to detect at an early stage any cellular abnormality that may suggest the presence of precancerous or cancerous lesions of the cervix as well as lesions of dystrophy [1]. Dystrophy is an abnormality of cell growth, which is distinct from the metaplastic phenomenon and dysplasia It consists of mild and limited morphological abnormalities, thought to be of inflammatory or hormonal origin. These abnormalities must be considered according to the context in which they are observed (ectopy metaplasia, atrophy, treatment, irrigative states, and infections) [2]. It was a retrospective study from August 1, 2014 to June 1, 2016 carried out at the Aristide LE DANTEC hospital in the laboratory of clinical cytology and reproductive biology. The technique used to detect dystrophy lesions was the cervico-vaginal smear
