Fluorescence spectroscopy for diagnosis of squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1999
To calculate receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for fluorescence spectroscopy in order to measure its performance in the diagnosis of squamous intraepithelial lesions (SILs) and to compare these curves with those for other diagnostic methods: colposcopy, cervicography, speculoscopy, Papanicolaou smear screening, and human papillomavirus ...

Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions of the Cervix in a High-Risk Population

Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease, 1998
We set out to examine our use of the squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL) category, compare our SIL rate to rates reported by others, and determine the corre-lation between SIL and histologically proven cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in our population.Reports from all Papanicolaou smears and associated histological specimens interpreted by ...

Fractal dimension of chromatin texture of squamous intraepithelial lesions of cervix

Diagnostic Cytopathology, 2011
AbstractThe aim of this study was to explore the role of fractal dimension (FD) of chromatin texture in routinely stained Papanicolaou's smears and to distinguish the different grades of cervical intraepithelial lesions and normal cervical cells. We selected 14 each cases of normal, low grade cervical intra epithelial lesions (LSIL), and high‐grade ...

Conservative treatment of low grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) of the cervix

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1998
AbstractObjective: To assess the accuracy of the cervical smear and colposcopy in diagnosing low grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL), and the natural history of LSIL. Method: The cytological, colposcopic and histological findings of 145 patients with a smear diagnosis of LSIL were compared, and the final outcome studied.

Electrofulguration for Low-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions of the Cervix (CIN 1)

Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease, 2004
To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and adverse events of electrofulguration for the treatment of cervical intraepithelial lesion grade 1 (CIN 1).Women aged 19 years and older received electrofulguration for histologically proven exocervical CIN 1. They were followed up at 3, 6, and 12 months with cytologic analysis, colposcopy, and, when indicated ...

Is bacterial vaginosis associated with squamous intraepithelial lesion of the uterine cervix?

Diagnostic Cytopathology, 2006
AbstractThe objective of this study was to analyze the association between bacterial vaginosis (BV) and squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL). Pap smears were analyzed to verify the presence of BV and SIL. One hundred and ten women with SIL comprised the study group, while 110 women with no cytological abnormalities served as controls. BV was similarly

Papillary Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion Outside the Uterine Cervix

American Journal of Surgical Pathology
Papillary immature metaplasia, originally described in the uterine cervix, is increasingly recognized as a distinctive squamous intraepithelial lesion rather than a true metaplastic process. Accordingly, the term papillary squamous intraepithelial lesion (PSIL) has been proposed. PSIL occurring outside the uterine cervix is exceedingly rare.

Intraepithelial and Invasive Squamous Cell Lesions of the Uterine Cervix

1991
The purpose of this chapter is to provide insight into a select group of pathologic entities that involve the uterine cervix and that are clinically relevant. Given the explosion in recombinant DNA technology, intraepithelial and invasive squamous cell neoplasms of the cervix are being viewed from new perspectives, in particular the relationship with ...

[Electrosurgery as treatment of high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix].

Ginecologia y obstetricia de Mexico, 1997
A prospective study was realized with the purpose of evaluating the efficiency of the excisional therapy of the electrosurgery in the treatment of the High Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (H.G.S.L.I.) of the cervix. 149 patients who were attended at the colposcopy service with this diagnosis were selected during September 1990 to April 1993.

Expression of the myelomonocytic antigens CD36 and L1 by keratinocytes in squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix

Human Pathology, 1994
The keratinocytes in squamous intraepithelial lesions (SILs) of the cervix show altered expression of a number of molecules involved both in the control of growth and differentiation and in cell surface interactions, particularly with components of the immune system.
