Cervical biopsy and pathology results

Cervical biopsy is a living tissue examination of the cervix, which means taking out a small piece or several pieces of tissue from the cervix, and then performing a pathological examination for confirmation. This is a very important method for checking whether the cervix is ​​cancerous. This biopsy method can make a clear diagnosis, determine the cause, and then carry out regular treatment. We know that the incidence of cervical cancer has been very high in recent years, and regular gynecological examinations are very important for women.

Cervical biopsy and pathology results

Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia is a precancerous lesion of the cervix and is not cervical cancer. It is divided into two types: low-grade intraepithelial lesions and high-grade intraepithelial lesions. Most low-grade intraepithelial lesions can transform into normal cervical epithelium. However, a biopsy is required for pathological examination to confirm the diagnosis. Therefore, it is necessary to do a colposcopic biopsy 3 to 7 days after the menstruation ends.

Indications

1. Increased leucorrhea with a fishy odor

Many women think they have vaginitis when they experience this symptom, but treatment is ineffective. Cervical cancer can also be manifested by increased and foul-smelling vaginal discharge, which can be differentially diagnosed through cervical biopsy.

2. Irregular vaginal bleeding

There are many reasons for irregular vaginal bleeding, and cervical lesions cannot be ruled out. Women who have this symptom for a long time should get checked out as soon as possible to see if it is caused by cancer.

3. Postmenopausal vaginal bleeding

It is common in elderly women who have vaginal bleeding after menopause. This is a very dangerous signal and you must go to the hospital for examination if you experience this phenomenon.

4. Contact bleeding (bleeding after sexual intercourse and gynecological examination)

Although traumatic bleeding cannot be ruled out, it may also be caused by cervical cancer.

5. Cervical inflammation that cannot be cured for a long time

Cervical erosion is often a physiological phenomenon (displacement of columnar epithelium), but early cervical cancer may also appear as erosion, and screening and identification are performed based on cervical cytology.

6. Gynecological examination revealed that the cervix was hard

It may be a sign of cancer.

7. Health check-up

During the health check-up, cervical smear cytology examination found cancer cells and suspicious cancer cells.
