    Cyto-histological concordance of intraepithelial lesions of the cervix at The San Bartolomé National Mother-Child Hospital, 2021-2023
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2024-06-09) Esquivel Muñoz, Tula Faviola; García Vásquez, Carlos Hugo
    Pap smear cytology is an effective method for reducing cervical cancer incidence and mortality, although it has limitations. This study aimed to determine the cytological-histological concordance of cervical intraepithelial lesions at the Hospital Nacional Madre-Niño San Bartolomé from 2021-2023. Results: The study found an acceptable level of cytological-histological concordance (k = 0.286; p < 0.001), with high sensitivity and specificity values for detecting cervical intraepithelial lesions.

    Prevalence of precursor lesions of cervical Cancer and risk factors in women attended at the Alberto Barton Health Center in 2011
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-07) Zegarra Uchiri, Christian Giovanni; Cárdenas Dávila, Carlos Gernier
    This study was conducted with the aim of determining the prevalence of cervical cancer precursor lesions in the female population who attended the Alberto Barton-Callao health center in 2011, relating these findings to potential risk factors. The Papanicolaou results of 809 women aged between 15 and 71 years were reviewed. The sample included 51 cases of abnormal cytologies, among which 16 were ASCUS, 12 with LIBG due to HPV, 19 with mild dysplasia (CIN I), 3 with moderate dysplasia (CIN II), and 1 case with severe dysplasia (CIN III). Among the risk factors, 70.2% started sexual activity before the age of 18, 81.2% had more than 3 sexual partners, 11.4% had 5 or more pregnancies, 36.5% used hormonal contraceptives or an IUD, and 78.5% had their last Pap smear 3 or more years ago or had never had one. On the other hand, 39.9% presented infectious agents. The data were processed using SPSS statistical software. It was concluded that the prevalence of cervical cancer precursor lesions was 6.3%. Among the associated risk factors, the number of sexual partners was statistically significant. It is recommended to conduct new studies addressing other risk factors and to promote timely cervical cancer screening programs.
