Abstract
One hundred and seventeen teenagers with abnormal cervical cytology were evaluated using colposcopy and directed biopsies. Eighty-eight cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia were discovered including 24 cases of severe dysplasia or carcinoma in situ. Erradication of these lesions is essential as a preventative measure. The importance of routine cytologic screening and early evaluation of abnormal Papanicolaou smears in the teenager is emphasized.Entities:
