Conventional cervical smears were better than monolayer cytology or human papillomavirus testing for detecting cervical intraepithelial neoplasia
Description of tests and diagnostic standard All women were evaluated by the 3 methods (CCS test, MLC, and HPV testing), and by colposcopy followed by biopsy if abnormalities were detected. After the CCS test, the remaining portion of the sample was used for the monolayer slide and for HPV testing. Smear abnormalities were classified into 5 ordered categories (negative, atypical squamous/glandu...
متن کاملPnm-17: Cost Effectiveness of Human Papillomavirus Testing in Cervical Cancer Diagnosis
Background: Epidemiological studies are shown robust association between human papillomavirus (HPV) and cervical cancer. From 1990 HPV was known as a necessary but insufficient cause of cervical invasive cancer. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cost effectiveness of HPV test in cervical cancer screening. Materials and Methods: This is a systematic review article; the newest scienti...
متن کاملRepeat Cytology and Human Papillomavirus Screening Strategies in Detecting Preinvasive Cervical Lesions
The aim of the present study was to determine the value of human papillomavirus (HPV) testing in screening patients with preinvasive cervical lesions. Seven hundred thirty-four women diagnosed with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS+) cervical cytology during routine screening had additional cytologic testing and HPV DNA testing within 6 months of their diagnosis, after...
متن کاملCross sectional study of conventional cervical smear, monolayer cytology, and human papillomavirus DNA testing for cervical cancer screening.
OBJECTIVES To compare the sensitivity, specificity, and interobserver reliability of conventional cervical smear tests, monolayer cytology, and human papillomavirus testing for screening for cervical cancer. DESIGN Cross sectional study in which the three techniques were performed simultaneously with a reference standard (colposcopy and histology). SETTING Public university and private prac...
متن کاملClinical utility of HPV genotyping.
Cervical cancer screening is presently done by finding abnormal cells in cervical smears (i.e., cervical cytology or Pap smears). However, cervical cytology is not full-proof. Cervical cytology is insensitive for the detection of cancer and precancer [1], requiring many rounds of screening to achieve programmatic effectiveness. It is now recognized that virtually all cervical cancers, both of t...
