Abstract
TAMAYO LIEN, Tania; VARONA SANCHEZ, Joel and DE LA TORRE, Ana Isabel. Study of the patients undergoing cone biopsy due to cervix uteri pathology . Rev Cubana Obstet Ginecol [online]. 2005, vol.31, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3062.
A descriptive and retrospective study was conducted at "Ramón Gonzalez Coro" Hospital during the first 8 months of 2005 among the patients undergoing cone biopsy with diathermic loop in the cervix uteri pathology department. As regards the 78 cases performed in 2004, there was an increase of 135 women (57 additional cases). The cytocolpohistological relation, as well as the presence and significance of some of the risk factors for the appearance of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia were analyzed. It was observed that parity did not influence on the histological results (p=0,1986); however, it was proved that the early beginning of sexual relations is associated with high degree cervix uteri lesions (p=0,038). The edges of the surgical section were studied and it was demonstrated that in more than 85 % of the patients it was possible to resect the lesion completely.
