Comparison of Colposcopy and Histopathology in Abnormal Cervix. | LitMetric

Cervicovaginal cancer (CVC) is the most common malignancy of the genital tract. Colposcopy is a diagnostic procedure that is used to examine the cervix and tissue samples of the urethra and vulva in a magnified view. The colposcopy and histological findings of unhealthy cervixes in a tertiary care hospital were compared. This comparative cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2022 to March 2023 among women with a variety of gynecological complaints who visited the Department of Obstetricians and Gynecologists in a tertiary care facility. One hundred participants were included in this study. The data collected were analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2016 (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, Washington, United States). Participants had an average age of 35.22 ± 7.18 years, and white discharge was the most reported ailment (73%). Comparing the results of the colposcopy with the histological findings revealed a sensitivity of 91.5% and a specificity of 72.2%. The high sensitivity of colposcopy highlights the need to combine it with histological techniques to obtain better results.
