[Cervical pap smears: techniques and clinical significance].
To be satisfactory, a cervical pap smear must be correctly fixed, and must contain endocervical cylindric cells and/or squamous metaplasic cells and mucus. The cytologist's conclusions and his recommendations must be expressed clearly. Any atypical findings must be controlled. If they persist, the patient will be oriented toward a colposcopy examination where targeted biopsies will be performed.
