| dc.description.abstract | A coloposcopy clinic was established in February 1988. An analysis of 300 cases seen at this clinic (over a 20 month period) is presented. The procedure consisted of taking a history, taking a cervical smear, perfoming colposcopy and colposcopy directed biopsy in the majority of cases (260 cases 86.67 per cent). The cases were referred for clinically suspicious cervices, abnormal bleeding per vaginam, abnormal cervical smears or self referral for check-up. The age of the patients ranged from 16 to 74 years, with the majority in the 35-44 age group (137 patients 45.67 per cent). The parity was from nulliparous to parity 14+2.37 of the patients were menopausal. Colposcopy could be satisfactorily performed in 286 patients. Most of the cases seen were colposcopically and histologically normal. Pathological lesions detected were squamous metaplasia (15), cervical intra epithelial neoplasis (14), coexistent cervical carcinoma and cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (2) and inflammatory lesions (79). | en_US |
