Evaluation of colposcopy and LEEP results performed in gynecology and gynecological oncology surgery services

The diagnostic performances of colposcopy and Loop Electrosurgical Excision Proce-dure (LEEP) results in gynecology gynecological oncology surgical services were evaluated. Their differences regarding biopsy numbers investigated. other objective was to examine factors associated with recurrence residual lesions after LEEP. This study included the cytology 1217 women undergone at our hospital unit between 2012 2017. colposcopicsensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value negative calculated based on LEEP results. qualitative data compared by employing Chi-square Fisher’s exact tests. χ2 predicted relation age number involved margins recurrent disease. Moreover, it link age, relevant There no significant difference performance two groups when determined as gold standard against colposcopy. accuracy rate 1.83 times higher more than 2 biopsies taken or fewer. A increase observed among having pre-LEEP high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) tests those HR-HPV (48.0% vs. 15.4%, p = 0.04). Women ≥ High grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL)-positive first conization exhibited rates (LSIL)-positive (50.7% 9.5%, < 0.001).
