ABSTRACT:

Background and aim of the study: Cervical cancer is the second most frequent cancer worldwide. This study was carried out to study the correlation of pap smear, colposcopy and histopathology in women with unhealthy cervices. This prospective analytical study was carried out in department of obstetrics and gynecology in a CAIMS tertiary care hospital.

Materials and Methods: This was a prospective clinical study conducted in 100 women who fulfilled the selection criteria. Among women attending the OPD who fulfilled the selection criteria were randomly selected. 100 women were randomly selected from patients’ attending the gynaecology OP. Pap smear, colposcopy and biopsy were done for all the cases after proper counseling. The result were tabulated and analysed.

Results: Majority 70.5% of CIN occurred in the age group of 30-49years, 41.1% with CIN were para 2, 35.2% with CIN were para 3 and 17.6% were greater than para 4 showing high incidence of CIN in multiparity. The incidence of CIN was found to be high among the lower income group 88.2%.

Conclusion: Overall though colposcopy is more sensitive with less false negative values and colpohistological is better, cytology is more and has features of being an ideal screening test- easy availability, low cost less training along with histopathological correlation

Key words: Cancer cervix, Colposcopy, CIN (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia).
