The Papanicolaou smear and the cervigram. A preliminary report.
We reviewed the results of Papanicolaou smears and cervigrams obtained at the same session from 250 patients. Seven Papanicolaou smears were abnormal, and 56 cervigrams were abnormal. Fourteen cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia I and two cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia III were missed by the Papanicolaou smear but identified by cervicography.
