Are high-grade squamous lesions serious?

High-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia is a type of precancerous lesion. There are two main types of cervical precancerous lesions: low-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia and high-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia.

High-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion is a type of cervical cancer in which the cells of the cervix are infected by a virus and undergo changes. The tissue lesions have reached the lower 1/3 of the cervical epithelium, but have not yet reached the level of invasive cervical cancer. Therefore, once high-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia is discovered clinically, it should be treated as early as possible.

Normal leucorrhea is white, paste-like or egg white-like, highly viscous, without any fishy smell, and in small amount. The leucorrhea caused by cervical cancer may be odorless and resemble rice washing water at first, but may be mixed with blood and have a foul odor in the later stages.
