Objective: To review the outcome of women presenting with borderline glandular smear on cervical cytology and to investigate correlation between cytology, colposcopy and histology and subsequent smear history.

Cytology, colposcopy, histology and follow-up cytology data at 6, 12 and 24 months after index smear were collated.
