Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) refers to precancerous changes in the cervix. After surgical treatment, a certain proportion of patients remain at risk of disease reccurence. Therefore, monitoring of patients after CIN surgery is an important and necessary part of their management tactics. Objective. Review of world literature on modern approaches to patients monitoring after using excisional methods of CIN treatment. Materials and methods. The information material includes data from scientific articles on the subject available in Pubmed and published over the past 20 years. Results. The analysis of data contained in modern literature on the frequency and risk factors for the development of reccurent CIN after excisional methods of treatment, diagnostic methods, the timing of follow-up examinations during post-operative monitoring, the main approaches to monitoring in different countries and the effectiveness of the proposed strategies for postoperative follow-up of patients after treatment was conducted. It was established that the approaches to the observation of this category of patients differ in various countries. Almost everywhere, the priority tool for monitoring of patients with CIN after treatment is a combined test, which involves a joint use of cytology and human papillomavirus tests. The main difference between countries is the timing of the first post-treatment follow-up visit. In some countries a follow-up visit is recommended within 24 months, while in others it is suggested to return to routine screening if the primary combined test is negative. Conclusion. Despite existing disagreements, the proposed post-operative monitoring strategies for CIN patients provide a fairly high percentage of “healing” and return to routine screening. Key words: human papillomavirus, monitoring, cervical cancer, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, excisional treatment

ObjectiveDue to long lag time between infection/cancer diagnoses human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination programs will deliver vaccine efficacy (VE) estimates against cancer end-points late. Cancer registry follow-up of population-based, randomised trial cohorts of vaccinated and unvaccinated women was undertaken for the estimation of VE against cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade three and invasive cancer (CIN3+).MethodsWe report interim results with 98 561 person years of Finnish Cancer Registry -based follow-up of individually and/or cluster randomised cohorts of HPV-16/18 vaccinated and unvaccinated adolescent women enrolled in June 2003/2005, and between May 2004 and April 2005, respectively. The cohorts comprised 15 627 18- to 19-year-old unvaccinated women (NCT01393470), and 2 401 and 64 16- to 17-year-old HPV-16/18 vaccinated women participating the PATRICIA (NCT00122681) and HPV-012 (NCT00169494) trials, respectively. The age-aligned passive follow-up started 6 months after the clinical trials’ end.ResultsDuring the follow-up of 4.5 to 10 years post enrolment we identified 75 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3) and 4 cases of invasive cervical cancer (ICC) in the unvaccinated cohort, and 4 CIN3 cases in the HPV-16/18 vaccinated women. Diagnostic blocks were available for HPV typing from 87% of the cases. CIN3+ lesions were detectable in 54 cases. HPV16 was found in 26 of 50 unvaccinated CIN3+ cases, and in 3 CIN3+ cases in the HPV-16/18 vaccinated women. The latter were all baseline positive for cervical HPV16 DNA. Baseline data was not available for the unvaccinated women. Intention-to-treat VE against any CIN3+ was 66% (95% CI 8, 88).ConclusionsTen years post vaccination the AS04-adjuvanted HPV-16/18 vaccine shows continued efficacy against CIN3+ irrespectively of HPV type. Vaccine efficacy was not observed in baseline HPV16 DNA positive subjects.Trial registration numberNCT01393470.

Abstract Context.—Reflex human papillomavirus (HPV) testing has been designated in consensus guidelines as “preferred” for women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) liquid-based cytology (LBC) results, and colposcopy is currently recommended for patients with HPV-positive ASC-US results. Data from large clinical practices using newer screening methods and current cytology terminology are limited. Objectives.—We analyzed data from patients with ASC-US LBC and positive HPV test results. We also assessed the impact of the presence or absence of an endocervical cell/ transformation zone sample (EC/TZS) on biopsy diagnoses. Design.—The information system of a large women's hospital serving an older-than-average population was searched over a 21-month period between July 1, 2005, and March 31, 2007, for HPV-positive cases interpreted as ASC-US (Bethesda System 2001) using computer-imaged LBC. Histologic diagnoses, patient ages, and presence or absence of an EC/TZS were analyzed. The average follow-up period was 7.5 months. Results.—Among 4273 women with HPV-positive ASC-US results, the cumulative cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or 3 (CIN 2/3) and CIN 1 rates for 2192 women with available biopsies were 5.1% and 43.6%, respectively. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 and CIN 1 rates for women with HPV-positive ASC-US results were not significantly different for women with and without an EC/TZS. Conclusions.—The risk of CIN 2/3 in the study population was significantly lower than reported in widely cited trial data. Neither presence nor absence of an EC/TZS, nor the age of the patient, had a statistically significant impact on the likelihood of biopsy diagnoses of CIN 2/3 and CIN 1 for patients with HPV-positive ASC-US test results.

Aims and background The purpose of this study was to assess the association between highly-oncogenic types HPV DNA detection by Hybrid Capture II (HCII) and residual or recurrent high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN 2 or 3) during the follow-up of women submitted to large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ). Study design In this cohort study, 94 women submitted to LLETZ because of CIN 2 or 3 between March 2001 and September 2002 were followed up twice yearly until September 2003. Follow-up visits consisted of an interview regarding clinical, social and demographic characteristics complemented with gynecological examination with specimen collection for Pap test and HCII and colposcopy. Eighty-one patients attended the first visit (mean 4.8 months, range 3-6) and 75 the second visit (mean 10.9 months, range 7-17 months). McNemar's test to assess the variation of HPV DNA detection following LLETZ, odds ratios (OR) to evaluate the correlation between HPV DNA positivity and residual/recurrent CIN during follow-up, and logistic regression to assess the risk of residual/recurrent CIN were used. Results There was a strong and significant reduction in HPV detection after LLETZ ( P <0.001). HPV DNA detection was correlated with residual/recurrent CIN at the first (OR = 103.4; 95% CI 5.5 to 1961.2) and second (OR = 12.7; 95% CI 1.1 to 345.5) follow-up visits. Multivariate analysis showed HPV persistence as a stand-alone risk factor for residual/recurrent CIN (OR = 50.3; 95% CI 3.8 to 663.1). Conclusions High risk HPV DNA detection decreased substantially after CIN treatment with LLETZ, but HPV persistence was strongly correlated with residual/recurrent CIN.

Abstract Context.—Although human papillomavirus (HPV) testing may aid in managing low-grade abnormality on screening cervical cytology, patient compliance with repeat testing programs requires consideration. Objectives.—To determine effectiveness and costs of repeated Papanicolaou (Pap) test and oncogenic HPV testing for detecting cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or 3. Design.—We conducted a randomized controlled trial of combined Pap test and cervical HPV testing by Hybrid Capture 1 test compared with Pap test alone; tests were performed every 6 months for up to 2 years. The study end point was colposcopic examination performed on all women at 2 years, or earlier if an HPV test was positive or if a Pap test showed high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. Setting.—Sixty-six community family practices. Participants.—Two hundred fifty-seven women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance or low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion on screening cervical cytology. Main Outcome Measures.—Detection of histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or 3, fully allocated costs, and loss to follow-up. Results.—Combined Pap test and HPV testing detected 11 (100%) of 11 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3, whereas Pap test alone detected 7 (63.6%) of these 11 cases (P = .14); corresponding specificities were 39 (46.4%) of 84 and 45 (71.4%) of 63 (P = .005). The cost-effectiveness ratio was Can $4456 per additional case of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. Sixty-nine (26.8%) of the 257 women (24.6% combined group vs 29.1% Pap test only group, P = .41) defaulted from testing or from colposcopy when referred with an abnormal result. Conclusions.—Combined testing was more costly but may detect more cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 than Pap test alone. However, poor adherence limits usefulness of a management strategy that requires repeated follow-up.
