title: Cervical atypia.
abstract: Abnormal Papanicolaou smears are common. The incidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in young women is increasing. These events trigger a strong emotional reaction in a woman and create stress in her relationships. The availability of accurate information and appropriate counselling will assist a woman and her partner to deal with this event in their lives.
