title: [Colposcopically "suspicious" and atypical findings from portio vaginalis uteri of women in pregnancy (author's transl)].
abstract: Described in this paper is the phenomenon of "suspicious" colposcopic findings and their histomorphological relevance, with reference being made to colpophotographic follow-up checks of pregnant women over several years. Colposcopy has been upgraded, in recent time, and it is against this background that its potential efficacy and limitations are assessed and compared to cytological techniques, on the basis of "suspicious" colposcopic findings. A general assessment also is made of the diagnostic expectations which can be hinged on either method of tracing. Twenty in 450 cases of carcinoma in situ and severe dysplasia were combined with processes of pregnancy, between 1962 and 1979, among them four cases which had been under colposcopic and cytological monitoring. In two of these cases constant behaviour of the epithelium was established up to postpartal or postabortal confirmation by cytograms, while the other two cases were thought to be attributable to gestational developments, with tissue being suspicious or progressive growth.
