title: [Micro-glandular hyperplasia of the cervix canal mucosa].
abstract: During the period of 1981-1990 2109 diagnostic-therapeutical curettages of the cervical canal and uterus were performed in the Department of Gynecology and Oncology of Medical Academy in Kraków. In histological examinations of scrapings 17 cases (0.8%) of micro-glandular hyperplasia limited to cervical canal have been found. In 14 out of analysed cases curettage have been performed due to metrorrhagia. There were 12 cases of myomatous uterine among them. Two cases were colposcopically suspected of CIN. One woman exhibited a cervical polyps. A connection between micro-glandular hyperplasia and pregnancy and particularly with oral contraception observed in other studies has not been determined. None of the 17 patients were pregnant. They took neither contraceptive pills nor were treated by female hormones. 15 out of examined patients had an estrogenic reaction in cytological evaluation. Decidual transformation of the uterine cervix has not been colposcopically found in any case. Coexistence of micro-glandular hyperplasia and severe dysplasia were revealed in two patients suspected cytologically and colposcopically of CIN. In one case micro-glandular hyperplasia parallel to squamous carcinoma of the cervix has been stated.
