Risk of High-Grade Histopathology Diagnosed by Cervical Conization in Endocervical Curettage Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia 1: A Case-Control Study

Abstract

Objective The aim of the study was to estimate risks of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2+ (CIN 2+) on loop electrosurgical excisional procedure (LEEP) specimens with the diagnosis of endocervical curettage (ECC) CIN 1 compared with biopsy CIN 1. Materials and Methods We performed a retrospective computer-based search for subjects enrolled in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University. The case group comprised women with an ECC CIN 1 (ECC results of CIN 1 with colposcopy-directed biopsy results ≤CIN 1), and the control group comprised women with a biopsy CIN 1 (colposcopy-directed biopsy results of CIN 1 with negative ECC findings) diagnosis. Variables, including age, cytology, high-risk human papillomavirus, and ECC results, were included in univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. p
