Cytopathological changes in human cervix and endometrium following prolonged retention of copper-bearing intrauterine contraceptive devices.

Abstract:

:Since 1971, cytological evaluation of cervical smears and endometrial aspirates was carried out in 604 women wearing CuT200 intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUDs) for periods ranging from 6 mo to 15 yr. No cases of cervical neoplasia or endometrial carcinoma were encountered, even after continuous use of the device for 15 years. Dysplastic cervical smears were, however, found in 45 postinsertional smears, and endometrial hyperplasia was detected in seven aspirates; in no cases was the dysplasia or hyperplasia higher than of moderate degree. Thirty-nine of the 45 women with postinsertional dysplastic smears were followed for 3-4 yr; in no case did the lesion progress to a higher grade or to frank malignancy. However, persistence and recurrence of dysplasia were seen in 10 women, necessitating removal of the IUDs. The incidence of cervical dysplasia and endometrial hyperplasia was found to be much higher when the IUDs had been changed than when the original devices were worn continuously. The rate of removal of IUDs because of persistent or recurring dysplasia was also much higher in the former group. Since no pregnancies were reported in any of the women wearing the original device for as long as 15 yr, we do not advocate the practice of changing the device at the end of 3 yr for maintaining contraceptive efficacy as recommended by the manufacturers; instead, we recommend the uninterrupted retention of the original device for periods not longer than 5 yr in view of occurrence of endometrial hyperplasia in two 6-yr wearers.
