Abstract

Objective: Our aim was to evaluate cervical smear results according to years and patient age. We investigated the abnormal outcome rates and distribution to determine whether there is any difference in smear results according to the examination method used and to contribute to the epidemiological data of our country. Material and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the cervical smear test results of the patients who were admitted to gynecology outpatient clinic of Şişli Memorial Hospital between June 2010 and December 2014. 32.617 patients aged 21-65 years were included in our study. Results: The pathology result was determined to be normal in 29.831 patients (91.5%). ASCUS, ASC-H and AGC were detected in 1.713 (5.25%), 135 (0.4%) and 21 (0.06%) patients respectively. LSIL was detected in 767 cases (2.35%), HSIL in 131 cases (0.4%), adeno cancer in three cases and squamous cancer in two cases. When all the cases were evaluated, the rate of abnormal results was found to be 8.5%. LSIL (35.9 ± 8.0 years) and HSIL (34.4 ± 7.2 years) were detected at significantly younger ages. Conclusion: In our study, we detected an increase in the prevalence of precancerous lesions in years by ThinPrep method.

Özet

Amaç: Hastanemizde yapılmış olan servikal smear sonuçlarının yıllara ve hasta yaşına göre değerlendirilmesi, anormal sonuç oranlarının ve dağılımının araştırılması, kullanılan inceleme yöntemine göre sonuç dağılımında farklılık olup olmadığının belirlenmesi ve sonuçların ülkemiz epidemiyolojik verilerine katkıda bulunmasıdır. Materyal ve Metot: 2010 Haziran-2014 Aralık tarihleri arasında Şişli Memorial Hastanesi jinekoloji polikliniğine başvuran ve servikal smear testi yapılan hastaların sonuçlarını retrospektif olarak analiz ettik. Çalışmamıza 21-65 yaş arası 32.617 hasta dahil edildi. Bulgular: Olgular ın dağılımı incelendiğinde 29.831 (%91,5) olgunun patoloji sonucu normal, 1.713 olguda (%5,25) ASCUS, 135 olguda (%0,4) ASC-H, 21 olguda (%0,06) AGC, 767 olguda (%2,35) LSIL, 131 olguda (%0,4) HSIL, üç olguda adeno kanser ve iki olguda da skuamöz kanser tespit edilmiştir. Tüm olgular değerlendirildiğinde anormal sonuç oranımız %8,5 olarak saptanmıştır. LSIL (35,9±8,0 yıl) ve HSIL (34,4±7,2 yıl) olgularının anlamlı olarak daha genç yaşlarda olduğu saptandı. Sonuç: Çalışmamızda, ThinPrep yöntemi ile yıllar bazında prekanseröz lezyon saptanma oranlarında bir artış saptadık.
