The incidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in a population of pregnant women with an abnormal cytology.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the incidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia - SIL and cervical cancer in a population of pregnant women with an abnormal cytology.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: In pregnant women with abnormal cytology results according to The Bethesda System, a verifying diagnostics was carried out, including colposcopy and cervical biopsy.

RESULTS: The most common histological and oncologic diagnosis in the whole study group of pregnant women were HGSIL changes, covering cervical intraepithelial neoplasia of medium and high grade - CIN 2 and CIN 3.

CONCLUSIONS: HGSIL changes are the most common oncological pathology in a population of pregnant women with an abnormal cytology. Precise risk identification of HGSIL changes with the use of molecular tests can significantly reduce the number of surgical procedures in a population of pregnant patients with a cytological diagnosis of ASCUS and LSIL.
