title: [Implementation of Reid's colposcopic index in teenagers].
abstract: The aim of the present investigation was to determine the possibilities of the Reid's colposcopic index to diffentiate the grade of the findings in sexually active teenagers.
  
  
  METHODS
  The study was based on 83 girls without child-birth in history, aged between 14 an 19 (mean age 18.13 years)q with different grade cytological and/or colposcopic atypia. Colposcopic findings were joined, according to semiobjective Reid's index and the results achieved were compared with the histological findings from the target biopsies.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The results from the colposcopic investigation were divided into 4 groups: in group 0--without pathological findings were classified 12 cases, in gr. 1 (Reid)--42, in gr. 2 (Reid)--24 and in gr. 3 (Reid)--5 patients. Histological equivalents were summarized as follow: normal and papiloma epithelium--in 27, CIN I--in 36, CIN II--15q and CIN III--5 cases.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The investigation performed, shows the good correlation (91.6%) between colposcopic impression and histological diagnosis, and this put the question about the place and role of the Reid's colposcopic index in predicting the severity of the pathological changes of the uterine cervix in sexually active adolescent girls.
