title: [Diagnosis and treatment of cervical dysplasia].
abstract: Between 1981 and 1986, 219 patients with cervical dysplasia were treated at the Kyushu University Hospital. All patients were diagnosed by cervical smear, colposcopy, and cervical biopsy and/or endo cervical curettage. They have been followed for more than one year (average 37 months). Of the 219 patients, 63 had mild dysplasia, 99 had moderate dysplasia, and 57 had severe dysplasia. One hundred and forty patients were treated with carbon dioxide laser. The remission rate was 95.0% after one treatment and 98.6% after two treatments. The laser therapy is effective, but a certain rate of recurrence is to be expected. Recently, 23 patients were treated with the cryotherapy and the remission rate was 83%.
