The sections show fragments of transformation zone. | |||
There is dysplastic squamous epithelium with coarse chromatin, nuclear hyperchromasia, | |||
nuclear enlargement, irregular nuclear membranes, and an increase nuclear-to-cytoplasmic | |||
ratio. Mitotic activity is abundant focally (5 mitoses/0.2376 mm*mm). The dysplastic | |||
squamous epithelium does not show appreciable maturation toward the surface (CIN 3). | |||
The dysplastic squamous epithelium is not associated with stroma; thus, the | |||
presence/absence of invasion cannot be assessed. Small nucleoli are seen rarely. | |||
There is benign squamous epithelium. Scant benign stripped endocervical epithelium is | |||
present. | |||
