ABSTRACT
Resumen OBJETIVO: Determinar la concordancia de los hallazgos citológicos, colposcópicos e histopatológicos en lesiones premalignas del cuello uterino. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal, retrospectivo y comparativo, efectuado en la Clínica de Displasias del Hospital General Regional 1 del estado de Querétaro, México, del 1 de enero a diciembre del 2020, con base en la información de los expedientes de mujeres con reporte citológico, colposcópico e histopatológico (biopsia) de lesión intraepitelial de bajo y alto grado. El plan de análisis estadístico incluyó intervalos de confianza para promedios y porcentajes. Se utilizó el Índice de Kappa ponderado para conocer el nivel de concordancia. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 290 expedientes. La edad promedio de las pacientes fue 36 años, el índice de kappa ponderado fue k = 0.41 (IC95%: 0.33-0.53) para la citología y la colposcopia con un valor moderado (regular). Para la citología y la biopsia fue de k= 0.33 (IC95%: 0.22-0.49) con un valor escaso (medio). En cuanto a la colposcopia y la biopsia fue de k = 0.61 (IC95%: 0.49-0.72) con un valor de buena (sustancial) concordancia. CONCLUSIÓN: Entre la citología y la colposcopia el coeficiente de concordancia fue moderado, para la citología y la biopsia fue escaso, mientras que para la colposcopia y la biopsia fue un sustancial.
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the concordance in cytologic, colposcopic and histopathologic findings in premalignant lesions of the uterine cervix. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cross-sectional, retrospective and comparative study, carried out in the dysplasia clinic of the Hospital General Regional 1 of the state of Querétaro, Mexico, from January 1 to December 2020, based on information from the records of women with cytology, colposcopy and histopathology (biopsy) report with low- and high-grade intraepithelial lesion. The statistical analysis plan included confidence intervals for averages and percentages. The weighted Kappa Index was used to determine the level of concordance. RESULTS: Two hundred and ninety records were analyzed. The mean age of the patients was 36 years, the weighted kappa index was k = 0.41 (95%CI: 0.33-0.53) for cytology and colposcopy with a moderate value (fair). For cytology and biopsy, it was k= 0.33 (95%CI: 0.22-0.49) with a poor value (medium). For colposcopy and biopsy, it was k = 0.61 (95%CI: 0.49-0.72) with a value of good (substantial) agreement. CONCLUSION: Between cytology and colposcopy the concordance coefficient was moderate, for cytology and biopsy it was poor, while for colposcopy and biopsy it was a substantial.
ABSTRACT
O câncer cervical é o quarto tipo de tumor mais frequente entre mulheres e quarta causa de mortalidade feminina por câncer no Brasil. Neste trabalho o objetivo foi demostrar o perfil das mulheres atendidas pelo SUS que apresentaram lesões intraepiteliais de baixo grau (LSIL) e alto grau (HSIL) no exame preventivo citopatológico realizado por um laboratório de citopatologia credenciado ao SUS que atende Cascavel-PR e distritos. No período de maio de 2014 a maio de 2015 foram observados 395 exames citopatológicos com LSIL e 160 com HSIL, cuja faixa etária predominante foi dos 25 aos 64 anos (70,64%). Em média observou-se os seguintes resultados: a JEC esteve presente em 90,56% das amostras; o colo cervical apresentou-se normal em 77,31% das mulheres e 43,58% destas mulheres em estudo haviam realizado um exame anterior em até um ano, sendo que o maior motivo para realização do mesmo foi o rastreamento (89,11%). Mais que 90% das mulheres não apresentaram sangramentos, seja após a relação sexual ou menopausa. As lesões também prevaleceram em mulheres atendidas na UBS (61,98%) mesmo elas sendo em menor número se comparadas àquelas atendidas por USF. Esses dados demostram a importância da realização desse exame, pois na maioria das lesões as mulheres não apresentaram sintomas ou alterações clínicas.
Cervical cancer is the fourth most frequent kind of cancer among women and the fourth cause of female mortality due to cancer in Brazil. The purpose of this work was to present the profile of women attended by the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS) who showed low-grade (LSIL) and high-grade (HSIL) intraepithelial lesions at the cytopathology screening test performed by a SUS-accredited cytopathology laboratory serving the city of Cascavel-PR and its districts. In the period between May 2014 and May 2015, a total of 395 cytopathologic test presenting LSIL and 160 with HSIL were observed. The age group ranged from 25 to 64 years old (70.64%). The following average results were observed: squamocolumnar junction was present in 90.56% of the samples; normal cervix in 77.31% of women and 43.58% of the women in the study had already had an examination within the previous year, with the main reason for the present exam was screening (89.11%). More than 90% of women did not present any bleeding, either after sexual intercourse or menopause. The lesions also prevailed in women attending primary health care (61.98% of lesions) even though they were in lower number when compared to those served by family health programs. Such information demonstrates the importance of carrying out this examination, since most lesions are asymptomatic or do not show any clinical changes.
