One hundred and forty patients, admitted to the Center of Oncology Research of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences with a suspicion to cervical cancer, were examined by the complex method comprising in addition to routine gynecological examination also extended colposcopy, cytological investigation of smears from pathological foci surface as well as histological studies, "aimed biopsy and cervical canal curetting. It was found that the cytological picture of moderate dysplasia of cervical epithelium is more frequently recognized in patients with pseuderosions developed with unchanged in size and form uterine cervix in the background, in the presence of benign colposcopic picture. The cytological picture of marked epithelial dysplasia and dysplasia with clear-cut cell atypism is observed in patients with bleeding pseuderosions against the background of hypertrophic and deformed cervix. Histological assay in these patients revealed early cervical cancer in 67% of observations. Marked extensive leucoplakia of the cervix found in clinical examination is manifested by different forms of epithelial dysplasia, while histological assay revealed early cervical cancer in 29.4% of observations.
