If there are atypical cells on a cytological smear and if the squamo-columnar junction can not be visualized during a colposcopic examination, then in order to exclude an early invasive cancer in the nonvisualized area within the endocervix it is mandatory to perform a diagnostic cone biopsy. A woman with abnormal cervical cytology and an unsatisfactory colposcopic examination who refused a cone biopsy was offered Lamicel in an attempt to expose the entire transformation zone. After 4 hr the sponge was removed and colposcopy repeated. The lesion and the squamo-columnar junction was then fully visible and she was spared a cone biopsy. |
