Abstract
Cytological examinations to the uterine cervix are the most effective, accurate and promising procedure for the detection of early and unsuspected carcinoma and other related complications. This study aimed to evaluate the cervical lesions and abnormal uterine bleeding by cytology and histology and correlating with hysterectomy findings. One hundred study group and one hundred control group subjects were considered and Study group patients further divided into reproductive age group with complaints and menopausal age group with complaints. There was 81.8% correlation between aspiration cytology and endometrial biopsy for diagnosis of pre-cancerous lesions of uterus. The accuracy for cytological diagnosis of hyperplasia in this study was 75% and 60% by endometrial biopsy. There was 81.25% correlation in inflammatory, 50% correlation in severe dysplasia, 33.3% correlation in carcinoma between cytology and biopsy. Thus, Present study shows that cytology is nearing accurate for diagnosis of precancerous and cancerous lesions of uterus and cervix.
