Cytohistological correlation in patients with atypical glandular cells on Papanicolaou test in a Chilean population.

Abstract:

:The standard screening test for detecting cervical lesions and cancers is a Papanicolaou (Pap) smear. While squamous cell abnormalities remain the most common positive Pap test result, cytologic findings of glandular cell abnormalities have become more frequent in recent decades. The 2014 Bethesda System for reporting cervical cytology includes the classification "atypical glandular cells" (AGC). AGC have morphological abnormalities that fall outside the range of reactive changes, but are insufficient for a diagnosis of invasive adenocarcinoma. In several histologic follow-up studies, most AGC cases were found to represent a benign condition. In the current study, we evaluate the significance of AGC cytology findings by analyzing the histologic follow-up results of a large number of patients with AGC. Most patients with AGC in this study were found to have a significant lesion on follow-up (63.9%), with negative histologic results in only 36.1% of patients. Among patients with significant lesions, the most common result was low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (26.6%), followed by high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (23.2%). This provides further evidence to support the Chilean Clinical Guidelines for Cervical Cancer, which recommends diagnostic follow-up studies in all women with AGC to minimize the chance of undetected serious cervical disease.
