Risk of High-Grade Cervical Lesions in Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance (ASC-US) Cytology: Comparison between HIV-Infected and HIV-Negative Women.

Background And Objective: Women with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection have an increased risk of HPV infection, cervical neoplasia. This study was undertaken to compare the risk of having high-grade cervical lesions defined as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) in HIV-infected versus HIV-uninfected women who had atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) on cervical cytology.

Methods: Fifty-seven HIV-positive women aged 25-65 years with ASC-US cytology undergoing colposcopic examination between January 2008 and December 2020 at Chiang Mai University Hospital were reviewed.

Cervical Screening Results Leading to Detection of Adenocarcinoma in Situ of the Uterine Cervix.

Background: Adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) of the uterine cervix is a preinvasive lesion of the invasive adenocarcinoma. We analyzed the cervical screening results leading to detecting the AIS lesions including the coexistence of AIS lesions with high-grade squamous intra-epithelial lesions (HSIL) and invasive carcinoma. Methods: Women who were diagnosed and received treatment for AIS at Chiang Mai University Hospital between January 1, 2007 and August 31, 2016 were retrospectively reviewed.
