title: Decidual ectopy on the uterine cervix. The diagnostic and clinical considerations.
abstract: On the basis of our clinical experience and literary data there were presented views on etiopathogeny of decidual transformations of the uterine cervix. Localization and colposcopic pictures of these lesions were discussed, and according to our clinical data discrimination between four forms of decidual ectopy was carried out. The vessel pattern of these changes, visible in colposcopic picture was characterized as well as its differentiation from vascular picture of malignant lesions. Possibility of cytological diagnosis in cases of decidual ectopy was also noted. On the basis of many years clinical experience there was showed the importance of colposcopic diagnosis of decidual ectopy in evaluation of early pregnancy and its complications.
