Abstract:
Objective To investigate the application of colposcope in cervical cancer screening in Yunnan ethnic minority areas.Methods The questionnaire survey was conducted on 641 women,and the data of the colposcopy and biopsy were reviewed retrospectively.The colposcopy and pathological diagnosis results were compared.Results The minority women thought colposcopy more acceptable was 78.64% (383/487).The colposcopy found suspected low-grade cervical lesions were 377 cases,high-grade cervical lesions were 245 cases,cervical condyloma were 15 cases,cervical cancer were 4 cases.The pathological results:278 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅰ,174 cases of CIN Ⅱ,55 cases of CIN Ⅲ,15 cases of cervical condyloma,4 cases of cervical cancer.The consistent rate of colposcopy and pathological examination was 68.17% (257/377) in low-grade lesions,89.39% (219/245) in high-grade lesions,cervical cancer and cervical condyloma was entirely consistent.Conclusions The colposcopy is more easily accepted in Yunnan ethnic minority areas,which could be a preliminary diagnosis of cervical lesions,cervical condyloma and cervical cancer.It has an important clinical application value in diagnosis of cervical diseases.
