Cervical biopsy

Cervical biopsy is an important diagnostic procedure. It is carried out by surgical intervention and minimally traumatic fencing of a piece of tissue from the lower segment of the uterus for examination using an optical device.

It is necessary if a gynecologist detects any abnormal changes in the cervical area during a visual examination or smear test that indicate precancerous conditions or oncology. It can be performed in case of detection of the papillomavirus, which provokes tumor-like formations.

The importance of a biopsy is that it provides information about the cells of the cervix and allows you to examine the symptoms of diseases at early stages. Biopsies help to make a diagnosis, predict the development of the disease and prescribe the right treatment.

Indications for cervical biopsy

  • Suspicion of a malignant tumor and precancerous diseases of the cervix.
  • The need to diagnose an abnormal process.
  • Unsatisfactory results of cytology smears.
  • Negative result of extended colposcopy.
  • Changes in epithelial cells for unknown reasons.
  • Lesions and precancer of the cervical canal.

A biopsy is prohibited if a woman has inflammatory diseases of the genitals or other organs. The patient developed problems with blood clotting, such as thrombocytopenia. Another reason to postpone a biopsy is infectious diseases of the genital tract.
