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.

Abstract Background The colposcopy-conization inconsistency is common in women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3). No adequate method has been reported to identify the final pathology of conization. In this study, we explored the ability of PAX1 and ZNF582 methylation to predict the pathological outcome of conization in advance. Methods This was a multicenter study and included 277 histologically confirmed CIN3 women who underwent cold knife conization (CKC) from January 2019 to December 2020. The methylation levels of PAX1 (PAX1m) and ZNF582 (ZNF582 m) were determined by quantitative methylation specific PCR (qMSP) and expressed in ΔCp. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate predictive accuracy. Results The final pathological results in 48 (17.33%) patients were inflammation or low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), 190 (68.59%) were high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) and 39 (14.08%) were squamous cervical cancer (SCC). PAX1 m and ZNF582 m increased as lesions progressed from inflammation/LSIL, HSIL to SCC. PAX1 and ZNF582 methylation yielded better prediction performance compared to common screening strategies, whether individually or combined. ΔCpZNF582 ≥19.18). A 6.53-fold increase in SCC risk was observed in patients with elevated ZNF582 methylation (ΔCpZNF582 < 7.09). Conclusion DNA Methylation would be an alternative screening method to triage and predict the final outcome of conization of the CIN3 cases.

The study involved 500 patients with LSIL (low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion), HSIL (high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion), stage I-IV cervical cancer, infected with human papillomavirus (HPV), as well as 235 women without pathological changes in cervical mucosa. The comprehensive survey included colposcopy, cytological and histological analysis, detection and genotyping of high-risk human papillomavirus. Viral load and physical status of HPV16 DNA was evaluated in cases of mono-infection (n = 148). The prevalence of virus-positive cases among the patients with LSIL/NSIL, cervical cancer patients and healthy women was 69.2%, 76.7% and 51.9%, respectively. An association between the severity of disease and high viral load was revealed. The frequency of integrated DNA was strongly increased in patients with a high viral load. The frequency of episomal forms was either reduced or not detecteable in patients with high viral load as compared to patients with low viral load. It is reasonable to suggest that a high HPV16 viral load may cause an increase in the frequency of integration of virus DNA into the cellular/host genome. This suggests that a high HPV16 viral load may be considered as a risk factor for prognosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer.

Abstract Context.—High-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 and 3) are commonly treated with loop electrosurgery excision procedure (LEEP) biopsies. Objective.—To highlight the significance of positive margins and extent of positive margins of the cervical LEEP biopsies in predicting the persistence of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion and to provide suggestions for reporting margins in cervical LEEP biopsies. Design.—The pathology files at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences were searched for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 and 3 treated by LEEP biopsy from 1990 to 2001. Results.—A total of 489 LEEP biopsy specimens were retrieved and reviewed; 270 patients had follow-up within 1 year. The biopsy specimens of 110 patients showed positive endocervical margins. One hundred sixty specimens had negative ectocervical-endocervical margins. Follow-up of 54% of the cases with initial positive margins showed residual high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions. This association was even greater when multiple blocks showed positive endocervical margins and in cases with positive deep margins. On the other hand, a negative margin predicted ability to completely remove the lesion in 95% of patients. Conclusion.—This study reiterates the significance of the evaluation of the margin, even in samples that were received as multiple fragments. Reporting of LEEP biopsy findings should include the extent of the dysplasia, the status of the ectocervical-endocervical margin, and the status of the deep margin.

Abstract Context.—Data on cytologic screening and follow-up disproportionately reflect findings from frequently screened younger women, and data from screened women 50 years and older using newer screening technologies remain limited. Objective.—To better understand the utility of adjunctive high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing for disease risk stratification in women 50 years and older with a range of liquid-based cytology, abnormal, squamous cell Papanicolaou test results. Design.—Liquid-based cytology cases interpreted as high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL); low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL); atypical squamous cells, cannot exclude high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (ASC-H); and atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) at Magee-Womens Hospital (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) were retrospectively identified for a 36-month period between July 1, 2005, and June 30, 2008, from women 50 years and older who also had hrHPV DNA test results. Histopathologic follow-up diagnoses were analyzed. Results.—During the study period, 4855 women 50 years and older had HSIL, LSIL, ASC-H, or ASC-US Papanicolaou test results and hrHPV testing. In 89.3% of HSIL cases, 71.0% of LSIL cases, 38.9% of ASC-H cases, and 14.2% of ASC-US cases, hrHPV test results were positive. The positive predictive value of a positive hrHPV test for histopathologic cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3+ detection was 90.5% with HSIL, 15% with ASC-H, 9.8% with LSIL, and 3.2% with ASC-US. A negative hrHPV test result had a 100% negative predictive value for histopathologic cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3+ in both LSIL and ASC-H cases. Conclusions.—In women 50 years and older, a positive hrHPV test result significantly increased the likelihood of follow-up histopathologic diagnoses of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 /3+ in patients with HSIL, LSIL, and ASC-H Papanicolaou test results compared with women with negative hrHPV test results. No cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3+ diagnoses were documented in women 50 years and older with LSIL or ASC-H Papanicolaou test results and negative hrHPV test results.
