UTERINE ENDOCERVIX, CURETTAGE: | |||
- FRAGMENTS OF SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM SHOWING DYSPLASIA, CANNOT GRADE, SEE COMMENT. | |||
- BENIGN STRIPPED ENDOCERVICAL EPITHELIUM AND BENIGN SCANT ENDOCERVICAL MUCOSA. | |||
COMMENT: | |||
The fragments of squamous epithelium do not show the full epithelial thickness; this limits | |||
the interpretation. | |||
A p16 immunostain strongly marks very scant squamous epithelium, and a Ki-67 immunostain | |||
marks increased numbers of squamous cells. | |||
A cervical biopsy is suggested. | |||
