在许多国家，宫颈癌的细胞学筛查已被牢固确立和接受。在一些发展中国家，由于财力和人力资源有限，情况并非如此。在一系列的1564例患者，同时阴道镜检查和细胞学发现31名妇女不同程度的宫颈上皮内瘤变。我们认为，阴道镜检查和细胞学检查的初步结合提供了一个更可靠的诊断宫颈病变和一个案件是建立大规模细胞学筛查在尼日利亚。
In many countries cytologic screening for cervical cancer has become firmly established and accepted. This has not been the case in some developing countries because of limited financial and manpower resources. In a series of 1564 patients, simultaneous colposcopy and cytology revealed 31 women with varying degrees of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. We feel that an initial combination of colposcopy and cytology provides a more reliable diagnosis of cervical lesions and a case is made for the establishment of mass cytologic screening in Nigeria.
