Purpose: A surgical technique was developed in the past by our group to reduce the rate of inadvertent complications. It was then seemed that it also increased the rate of complete lesion excision. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a cervical traction suture technique in increasing the prevalence of complete lesion excisions and reducing the incidence of unintended injuries to adjacent tissues during large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ).

Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the significance of terminology changes related to vulvar intraepithelial lesions, highlighting issues with previous classifications that could lead to overlooked or overdiagnosed conditions.
- A committee from the International Society for the Study of Vulvovaginal Disease (ISSVD) developed a new set of terms to address these concerns, including designations for low-grade and high-grade lesions, as well as differentiated types.
- The updated terminology aims to unify clinical understanding and follow World Health Organization classifications, ensuring all vulvar lesions are accurately identified and treated.

Objectives: The impact of terminology for vulvar intraepithelial lesions has been significant over the years, because it has affected diagnosis, treatment, and research. The introduction of the Lower Anogenital Squamous Terminology (LAST) in 2012 raised 2 concerns in relation to vulvar lesions: firstly, the absence of reference to "differentiated vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia" (differentiated VIN) could lead to its being overlooked by health care providers, despite its malignant potential. Secondly, including the term "low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion" (LSIL) in LAST recreated the potential for overdiagnosis and overtreatment for benign, self-limiting lesions.
