Colposcopic outcomes for symptomatic patients with a negative oncogenic human papillomavirus test.
2021
This study assesses outcomes of colposcopy referrals for post-coital, intermenstrual, or other abnormal bleeding with negative oncogenic human papillomavirus and negative to low-grade cytology. Of 112 cases with median age of 34.5 years, cervical biopsy occurred in 19%, treatment of ectropion in 19%, endometrial sampling in 8%, polypectomy in 4%, and contraceptive change in 2%. No cervical or endometrial neoplasia was detected. Patients with bleeding symptoms and reassuring co-test may instead attend a general gynaecology clinic.
