Necessity of endocervical curettage in colposcopy.
The use of endocervical curettage was evaluated in 200 patients undergoing colposcopy, biopsy, endocervical curettage, and conization. It is suggested that endocervical curettage be performed only in cases of satisfactory colposcopy, since patients with unsatisfactory colposcopy should undergo conization.
