Efficacy of Pap test in combination with ThinPrep cytological test in screening for cervical cancer.
BACKGROUND Our aim was to investigate the efficacy of the Pap test in combination with the ThinPrep cytological test (TCT) in screening for cervical cancer in China. DESIGN From March 2006 to October 2008, 988 women with the mean age 46.4 ± 10.5 years (range, 23-80 years) were recruited to receive cervical cancer screening. Pap test results ≥ grade III and TCT findings ≥ ASCUS/AGUS were consi...
متن کاملDetection of in situ and invasive endocervical adenocarcinoma on ThinPrep Pap Test: Morphologic analysis of false negative cases
BACKGROUND The goal of this study was to calculate the sensitivity and false negative (FN) rate of ThinPrep Pap Test (TPPT) and carefully analyze missed cases for educational purposes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with histologically proven adenocarcinoma in-situ (AIS) or invasive endocervical adenocarcinoma (EAC) over a 17-year-period (1998-2015) were identified. The TPPT immediately prece...
متن کاملRestoring satisfactory status in ThinPrep Pap test specimens with too few squamous cells and containing microscopic red blood cells.
Treatment of specimens that contain excessive blood can effectively reduce the unsatisfactory rate; however, a considerable number of unsatisfactory specimens remain. We evaluated the effectiveness of reprocessing unsatisfactory specimens that had too few squamous cells and contained microscopic red blood cells (TFSQRBC).Out of the 688 unsatisfactory specimens at microscopic screening, 197 (28....
متن کاملClinical inquiries. Is the ThinPrep better than conventional Pap smear at detecting cervical cancer?
■ EVIDENCE-BASED ANSWER Conclusions regarding the ThinPrep are difficult to make due to the complexity of cervical cancer screening and the lack of adequate outcomebased data. However, current evidence supports the following: the ThinPrep is more sensitive than the conventional Papanicolaou (Pap) smear at detecting cervical cancer (strength of recommendation [SOR]: A–, based on 1 large validati...
متن کاملDoes liquid-based technology really improve detection of cervical neoplasia? A prospective, randomized trial comparing the ThinPrep Pap Test with the conventional Pap Test, including follow-up of HSIL cases.
OBJECTIVE To compare the sensitivity, specificity and specimen adequacy of the ThinPrep Pap Test (TP) with the conventional Pap Test (CV) in a low-risk population with subsequent follow-up of HSIL cases. STUDY DESIGN A prospective, randomized, controlled design was chosen to compare the TP with CV. Cytologic diagnosis and specimen adequacy were evaluated and compared with histology data in hi...
