چکیده
OBJECTIVE To correlate cervical cytology with Cervical histology. METHODOLOGY A hospital based prospective study was carried out in consecutive total forty-three patient attending oncology clinic of Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital, Sinamangal, Nepal from 1st Bhadra 2061 to end of Falgun 2061 (18th August 2004-12th February 2005) during authors posting in this clinic. All patients who underwent cervical biopsy on either indication of clinically suspected lesions or abnormal cytology were correlated with Pap smear report. Pap smear was carried out in conventional technique using Ayre's spatula. Cervical biopsy was carried out with help of punch biopsy forceps in operation Theatre without the guidance of colposcopy. All pertinent information regarding patient profile in terms of their age, parity, age at marriage, age at 1st child birth, smoking habit, contraceptive use, and symptom of vaginal discharge was taken. Reports of Pap smear and cervical biopsy of these patients were collected from oncology clinic during their follow up visit and all these information and finding were entered in structured questionnaire. The reporting of Pap smear was done in Bethesda system. The average duration between performing Pap smear and biopsy was of one month. Statistical analysis was carried out by EPI-INFOS6 system. RESULT Of forty three patients who underwent cervical cytology 22 cases were of Benign lesion, 8 cases of LSIL, 9 cases of HSIL, 3 cases of invasive carcinoma and 1 of ASCUS. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, diagnostic accuracy and p-value in benign grade was 76%, 83.3%, 86.4%, 71.4%, 79.1%, 0.0004 respectively. Similarly sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, diagnostic accuracy and p-value in LSIL was 60%, 93.9%, 75%, 88.6%, 86%,0 .0008 respectively. For HSIL it was 100%, 89.5%, 55.6%, 100%, 90.7 0.0001 respectively. Respectively for carcinoma it was 100% for sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, diagnostic accuracy p-value was 0.00008. CONCLUSION Pap smear significantly correlated with cervical histology.
