    To determine the correlation between cytology and histology in the diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial lesions in patients at the San Juan de Lurigancho Hospital from 2010 to 2013. Study Type: Descriptive, retrospective, non-experimental. Findings: Between 2010 and 2013, 5732 cervical-vaginal cytological reports from women aged 21 to 79 were reviewed. Of these, 97.2% were reported as negative for intraepithelial lesions. A total of 110 patients underwent cervical biopsy. Results: The average age of women diagnosed with LIEBG and LIEAG via Pap smear was 45 and 44.2, respectively. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 66.67%, 65.7%, 80.6%, and 47.9%, respectively. The cytological-histological discrepancy was 33% (37/110). The correlation for low-grade lesions was 78.3% (29/37). There was under-diagnosis in 7.1% (3/42) of cases that turned out to be LIEAG and 2.3% (1/42) that were malignant neoplasms. Over-diagnosis occurred in 21.4% (9/42) where lesions were negative for intraepithelial lesions or malignant neoplasms. The correlation for high-grade lesions was 72.7% (8/11). No under-diagnosis occurred (cases that would have been malignant invasive neoplasms). Over-diagnosis occurred in 57% (11/19), as they were classified as LIEBG 42% (8/19) or negative for lesions or malignant neoplasms 15% (3/19). Conclusions: The study rejects the hypothesis of no correlation between cytology and histology in the diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial lesions.
