| الوصف: | Objectives: An audit of a ‘colposcopy and treatment’ clinic between April 2003 and December 2006, to determine: • The frequency of overtreatment with Papanicolaou(PAP) smear on its own, colposcopy on its own or a combination of the two methods. • Differences in overtreatment between the patients who are HIV positive and those who are HIV negative, • The short term complications of Lletz at this clinic. Design: An analysis of the data from the colposcopy clinic database of patients, who were referred according to National Guidelines. Setting: Patients who are referred to Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital. Results: Normal histology, was found in 1.3% of patients, and CIN 1 or HPV in 8.4%. The overall complication rate was 3%. Conclusion: The high loss to follow-up and the low early complication rate together with an acceptable overtreatment rate make this a justifiable approach in our situation. HIV negative women were more likely to be overtreated than HIV positive patients(p=0.03). |
