Vaginal Intraepithelial Neoplasia and the Pap Smear

Acta Cytologica, 2000
To assess the sensitivity of the vaginal smear cytologic examination in detecting vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN) and to evaluate the cytologic findings of cases of VAIN.Cases with a histologic diagnosis of VAIN were identified from the Barnes-Jewish Hospital South and North Campus over a period of five and nine years, respectively.

A3. Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN)

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2006
AbstractVAIN is much rarer than the equivalent dysplastic changes found in the cervix but may accompany cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. VAIN is also HPV in‐duced and may be an extension of a cervical lesion or a satellite lesion. VAIN lesions are usually asymptomatic and detected by cytologic screening. Lesions can be ex‐cised, vaporized or treated

Vaginal Intraepithelial Neoplasia: Biologic Aspects and Management

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1986
A review of 59 consecutive cases of vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia seen in a colposcopy clinic between 1971 and 1984 was made. All patients presented with an abnormal Papanicolaou smear, and diagnosis was confirmed by colposcopically directed biopsy. The patients ranged in age from 23 to 72 years, with a mean age of 49.

Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia. Report of 14 cases

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1987
From 1978 to 1985 we have found 14 cases of vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN) in patients previously hysterectomized. VAIN was detected by an abnormal cytology; diagnostic process included a second cytology, colposcopy, Schiller test, and directed biopsies. VAIN was classified as grade I in 5 patients (35.7%); grade II in 5 patients (35.7%); and

DIAGNOSIS AND MANAGEMENT OF VULVAR AND VAGINAL INTRAEPITHELIAL NEOPLASIA

Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2001
Vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia and VAIN present unique challenges to the practicing gynecologist. VIN may produce distressing symptoms and undergo malignant conversion. A high index of suspicion and liberal use of biopsy are required to make the diagnosis. The approach to therapy for VIN has been reviewed.
