“…In another case-control study, 214 women who were having IVF were compared with 197 healthy control women; the prevalence of abnormal cervical cytology in the subfertile women was 2.3%, which is also much less than the 29.5% found in our study. The authors used the CIN (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia) classification system for reporting the Pap smear results;17 in contrast to the results of van Hamont et al, the rate of abnormal cervical cytology of 4.1% in the control group in this study was higher than that in women undergoing IVF, but it was still much less than that in our group 16…”

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Since cervical cancer is reportedly the seventh most frequent cancer in women in Saudi Arabia and the eighth most frequent cancer among women aged between 15 and 44 years, we wanted to determine the prevalence of abnormal cervical cytology among subfertile women attending the reproductive medicine unit of a tertiary care center in Saudi Arabia.METHODS:This was a retrospective, cross-sectional, hospital-based study. A Pap smear was done for 241 of 493 (48.9%) subfertile women from January 2008 through February 2009.RESULTS:The Pap smear was normal in 166 of 241 patients (67.9%), abnormal in 71 (29.5%), and unsatisfactory for evaluation in 4 (1.7%). According to the revised Bethesda system, epithelial cell abnormality was found in 7 (2.9%), inflammation in 55 (22.8%), and infection in 9 (3.7%) patients. Epithelial cell abnormalities were further classified as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) (n=3, 42.8%), atypical squamous cells of high grade (ASC-H) (n=1, 14.3%), low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) (n=2, 28.5%), and glandular cell abnormalities (AGS) (n=1, 14.3%).CONCLUSION:The high prevalence of abnormal cervical cytology in our subfertile women accentuates the need for screening in patients eligible for in vitro fertilization. In addition, a well-organized screening program for cervical cell abnormalities at the national level should be implemented to allow identification of subfertile women at risk so that potentially life-saving measures can be undertaken early.

“…CIN [cervical intraepithelial neoplasia] lesions are characterized on colposcopic examination by white patches on the cervix after application of acetic acid. 8 In addition, distinct vascular mosaic or punctuation patterns can be observed. Highly abnormal vascular patterns accompany invasive cervical cancer.…”

BACKGROUNDCervical cancer is one of the India's major health problem and a major cause of death in women. OBJECTIVESTo find out the prevalence of cervical cancer in rural areas by effective screening methods. SETTINGStudy was conducted in Thanjavur Medical College Hospital, Thanjavur. MATERIALS AND METHODSStudy was carried from January 2013 to December 2014. A total of 6420 women were screened under Pilot Screening Programme Project in Thanjavur District. VIA [Visual inspection of cervix after application of acetic acid] and VILI [Visual inspection after application of Lugol's Iodine] was done. Colposcopic guided biopsy was taken and histopathological examination was done. Its relation to HPV infection was proved with immuno-histochemical markers Ki 67 and P16INK4. RESULTSOf the 6420 women screened for cancer cervix, 7.9% were found to have cervical intraepithelial neoplasia I [CIN I], 3.2% with CIN II, 1.7 % with CIN III. A total of 9.4% women had frank carcinoma of cervix, out of which 9.1% was squamous cell carcinoma, .2% was adenocarcinoma and other tumours constituted about .1%.

“…La principal indicación de conización en nuestra casuística fue NIE de alto grado con 75,2% de los casos, siendo la principal indicación el CIS de cuello uterino en el 53 % de los casos, similar a lo presentado en otras publicaciones (2,3,4,5). En el 87 % de los casos con diagnóstico de CIS previo se comprueba lesión de alto grado (6).…”
