Dr. Nanda Y. Vinayak, Dr. Jaya Jain

Abstract :

Cervical cancer is the twelfth most predominant cancer in the females. Papanicolaou (PAP) smear is a simple, safe, non-invasive and effective method for detection of pre-cancerous changes in the cervix and vagina. The patients having abnormal Cervical Cytological smear, abnormal VIA (visual inspection with acetic acid application) or VILI (visual inspection with Lugo‘s Iodine application) are subjected to colposcopic examination. Colposcopy helps to assess squamo columnar junction visibility and transformation zone. The objective of colposcopist should be to recognize or exclude the underlying invasive disease. This paper aims at the role of colposcopy in the evaluation of cervical lesion and to detect carcinoma of the cervix in its pre-invasive stage. It helps to spot the exact site of the lesions and to obtain the biopsies. This was a prospective clinical study carried on 50 patients at the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, AVBRH hospital DMIMSU Wardha, during November 2017 to November 2018. Interpretations were made on the basis of swede score, which lies between 0 and 10. Colpsoscopy is the diagnostic test to evaluate patients with an abnormal cervical cytological smear or abnormal appeå cervix. Colposcopic features and patterns corresponds with underlying specific histological features. The presence or absence of precancerous lesions are confirmed with colposcopy and finally with biopsy.
