Our understanding of the human papillomavirus (HPV) related cytomorphology and histopathology of the anal canal is underpinned by our knowledge of HPV infection in the cervix. In this review, we utilise cervical reporting of cytological and histological specimens as a foundation for the development of standardised and evidence-based terminology and criteria for reporting of anal specimens. We advocate use of the Australian Modified Bethesda System 2004 for reporting anal cytology. We propose the use of a two-tiered histological reporting system for noninvasive disease – low-grade and high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia. These classification systems reflect current understanding of the biology of HPV and enhance diagnostic reproducibility. Biomarkers such as p16INK4A may prove useful in further improving diagnostic accuracy. Standardisation is important because it will increase the value of the data collected as Australian centres develop programs for screening for anal neoplasia.

BACKGROUND : PIN is a well known precancerous condition of prostatic carcinoma. Transurethral resection of prostate has become the most prominent and the easiest way, to morphologically evaluate lesions of PIN. But clinicians are sometimes confused by the grading that is given in the report. So there is a need to define the diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis of PIN using newer diagnostic techniques to assist in the better diagnosis and grading. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether the diagnostic criteria can be defined PIN and using newer techniques for PIN grading to improve the clinical management of patients with prostatic lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study will be done in the Department of Pathology MGM Hospitals, Warangal for a period of 2 years and includes consecutive cases of TURP specimens from the patients who present with obstructive symptoms as a major clinical presentation and correlated with PSA levels. INCLULSION CRITERIA: Patients who present with obstructive symptoms as a major clinical presentation. RESULTS: 1.160 cases of TURP specimens were studied out of which 53 (33.12%) cases are PIN. BPH -78 (48/74%), PC-15 (9.37%), SM-14 (8.75%) 2. Majority cases are low grade PIN 34 out of 53 cases (21.25%) High Grade PIN 19 out of 53cases. (11.87%) 3. High Grade PIN and prostatic Carcinoma shared increased incidence and severity with advancing age in the study. Majority of HG PIN cases in our study noted in (70-79 years of age) 4. The risk of carcinoma is more in cases of High Grade PIN (68.42%) than in low grade PIN (17.64%) 5. This warrants are need for repeat prostatic biopsies to diagnose the invasive carcinoma in patient with High grade PIN.

Introduction: The objective of the study was to determine frequency and to compare frequency of the abnormal colposcopic images in patients with low and high grade pre-invasive lesions of cervix.Methods: Study includes 259 patients, whom colposcopic and cytological examination of cervix was done. The experimental group of patients consisted of patents with pre-invasive low grade squamousintraepithelial lesion (LSIL) and high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), and the control group consisted of patients without cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN).Results: In comparison to the total number of satisfactory fi ndings (N=259), pathological findings were registered in N=113 (43.6 %) and abnormal colposcopic fi ndings in N=128 (49.4%). The study did notinclude patients with unsatisfactory fi nding N=22 (8.5%). Abnormal colposcopic image is present most frequently in older patients but there are no statistically important difference between age categories(Pearson Chi-Square 0.47, df -3, p=0.923). Frequency of abnormal colposcopic fi ndings (N=128) is the biggest in pathological cytological (N=113) and HSIL 58 (45.3%), LSIL 36 (28.1%). There is statisticallysignifi cant difference in frequency of abnormal colposcopic images in patients with low-grade in comparison to patients with high-grade pre-invasive cervix lesions (Chi-Square test, Pearson Chi-Square 117.14,df-12 p<0.0001).Conclusion: Thanks to characteristic colposcopic images, abnormal epithelium is successfully recognized, but the severity grade of intraepithelial lesion cannot be determined.

212 females attending a genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic with first episode anogenital warts were screened by cervical cytology and colposcopy/histology for the presence of cervical epithelial abnormalities in keeping with infection by the human papillomavirus (HPV infection) and/or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). The prevalence of cervical epithelial abnormalities detected by cervical cytology alone was 32%, rising to 56% after colposcopic examination. However, the majority of cervical lesions detected by colposcopy alone were of low grade (HPV infection and/or CIN I). Histologically confirmed high grade cervical lesions (CIN II or CIN III) were detected more frequently in those females in whom cervical cytological examination indicated dyskaryosis in keeping with any grade of CIN, compared to females without dyskaryotic changes on cervical smear ( P<0.05, chi-squared test with Yates' correction). Early colposcopy is indicated for females with anogenital warts in the presence of a cervical smear showing dyskaryosis in keeping with any grade of CIN, because of the statistically significant increased risk of detecting a potentially progressive high grade cervical lesion. In females without dyskaryotic changes on cervical smear, the value of early colposcopy is uncertain and warrants larger more long-term trials.

Abstract Background We aimed to assess the relationship between sexually transmitted infections (STIs)—including a large panel of human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes—and high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (HGAIN) in men who have sex with men (MSM) who were living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Methods In a prospective study in an HIV cohort, participants underwent high-resolution anoscopy (HRA) for anorectal swabs collection to investigate STIs and for anal biopsy. Multiplex real-time polymerase chain reactions were performed, detecting several STIs and 28 HPV genotypes. Univariate and multivariate generalized linear models were used to analyze the relationships of variables of interest with HGAIN. Results There were 145 participants included; in 49, 2 HRAs were performed. Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU) was detected in 25 (17.2%) participants, Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) in 13 (9.0%), Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) in 4 (2.8%), HPV16 in 38 (26.2%), HPV52 in 29 (20%), and HPV53 and HPV42 in 28 (19.3%) participants each. There were 35 (24.1%) subjects diagnosed with HGAIN. In the univariate analysis, HGAIN was associated with CT, UU, MG, HPV16, HPV53, HPV68, and HPV70, and significant interactions were found between CT and HPV16 (odds ratio [OR] 31.0 95% confidence interval [CI] 4.3–221.7) and between UU and HPV16 (OR 8.8, 95% CI 2.1–37.5). In the adjusted model, CT, HPV16, HPV53, HPV70, the CD4+/CD8+ ratio, and the interaction between CT and HPV16 remained independent predictors of HGAIN. HPV16, HPV53, and HPV70 persisted in the second HRA in all the participants with recurrent HGAIN. Conclusions Coinfection with CT may potentiate the oncogenic capability of HPV16 and increase the risk of HGAIN in people with HIV. HPV53 and HPV70 should be considered among the genotypes associated with HGAIN.

Background: Between 1970 and 2000 in Australia, anal cancer rates have increased over fourfold. Furthermore, the prevalence rate of anal cancer in MSM is approximately 35 cases/100�000, comparable to that of cervical cancer in women prior to the introduction of the national cervical screening program. These observations have led to calls for the introduction of targeted anal cytological screening program for MSMs. Our study examined the effectiveness of anal cytological testing in detecting histologically proven high grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (HGAIN, also known as AIN2 & 3). Methods: A retrospective case note review of people attending an anal dysplasia clinic from July 2002 to May 2007 was performed. Cytological results of anal swabs were compared to results of biopsies obtained through high resolution anoscopy. Results: 436 anal cytological results were identified. Of these, 5% were unsatisfactory, 51% showed low grade changes and 44% showed high grade changes. 185 cases were then paired with corresponding histological results. Analysing the data from the perspective of diagnosing histologically proven HGAIN, anal swab cytological abnormalities revealed a sensitivity of 54% and specificity of 90% for the most recent cytological test and 83% and 39% respectively, when analysed according to most serious cytological result ever. Conclusions: Our sensitivities of 54-83% and specificities of 39-90% are consistent with those found with cervical cytology, but emphasize the need for caution in their interpretation. However, before any anal cytological screening programs are introduced, it is important to also establish that treatment of any high grade anal dysplasia detected by such screening is of value in preventing progression to cancer.
