Role of colposcopy in detecting cervical intraepithelid neoplasia

A protocol for diagnosing early stage of carcinoma cervix and cervical intraepithlial neoplasia (CIN) is advented. This includes taking of cervical smear, colposcopy and colposcopy directed biopsy. So for only 60 patients have been under study. Four case of mild dysplasia (CIN-I), six cases of moderate dysplasia (CIN-II), six cases of severe dysplasia, four cases of carcinoma in-situ (ten cases of CIN-III) and two cases of carcinoma stage Ia were picked up with colposcopy directed biopsy which gives a pick up rate of 36.67 per cent. The number of cases are still small but the results are impressive.Hence the study will be continued indefinitely.
