Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the rate of clinically significant histopathologic lesions in women identified with atypical glandular cells (AGC). Five-hundered and forty patients with AGC, from a cohort of 1013 with AGC, met inclusion criteria for this study by having a proper histologic evaluation. Clinically significant histologic results were obtained in 170 cases with AGC (31.5%). Of the 170 clinically significant cases, 86 of 540 (15.9%) were diagnosed with malignant lesions. The findings of clinically significant lesions in more than 30% of patients support the recommendation that women identified with AGC require extensive histologic examination.
