[Experiences with 2,000 conizations of the uterine cervix (author's transl)].
The records and histologic specimens of 2,000 patients who underwent cold knife conization were reviewed with regard to the usefulness as a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure. In 81,4% further diagnostic procedures were not necessary. Intrapithelial neoplasia was demonstrated in 78% including 16,4% invasive carcinomas. The incidence of non-pathologic conditions was higher in cone specimens submitted from other hospitals or gynecologists. 85% of preinvasive and invasive epithelial neoplasia were detected by cytology.
