title: [Correlation between oncologically suspicious cytologic smears and colposcopic images of the uterine cervix and results of histopathologic examination taken from material provided by the Gynecology Department of the Pruszkow Municipal Hospital from 1995 to 1997].
abstract: The objective of the paper was an evaluation of relationship between oncologically suspicious cytologic smear and colposcopic images, and the results of histopathological examination of samples collected from the vaginal portion of uterine cervix and from cervical canal scrapings. The material consisted of 60 patients with cytologic group 3 and 13 patients with group 4 and 5 according to Papanicolaou, who had been selected during a two-year preventive examination period. Cytologic group 3 patients (group 1) were subjected to cytological assessment and colposcopic examination again in order to determine further diagnostic indications. Cytologic group 4 and 5 women (group 2) were collected samples from the vaginal portion of uterine cervix under colposcopic supervision, without waiting for the result of cytologic re-assessment. All these patients were also collected samples from the vaginal portion of uterine cervix. In patients of cytologic group 3 the cytologic and colposcopic examination results were found to be compatible with histopathologic examination results in 53.3% cases. In patients of cytologic group 4 or 5 this factor was established at 92.3%.
