The Evaluation of Cervical Cytology Results in a Tertiary Health Centre Between 2006-2015
Amaç: Servikal kanser taramasının amacı, servikal kanser ile ilişkili morbidite ve mortaliteyiazaltmaktır. Araştırmamızda hastanemizin elektronik kayıtları retrospektif olarak incelenerek servikalsitolojik anomalilerin sıklığının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.Materyal ve Metot: Hastane elektronik kayıtlarından 2006-2015 yılları arasında 54999 hastanındemografik verisine ve Pap-smear sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır. Bulgular: Servikal sitolojik anomalilerin sıklığı %2,27; ASCUS, LSIL, HSIL sıklığı sırasıyla; %1,29; %0,27;% 0,11 olduğu görüldü. Hastalarda HSIL sıklığının en fazla olduğu yaş grubunun 71 yaş ve üzeri grupolduğu görüldü.Sonuç: Türkiye'deki anormal servikal sitoloji sıklığı Avrupa, israil ve Kuzey Amerika ile benzerbulunmuştur. Hastanemizin 10 yılı aşkın süredeki servikal sitoloji sonuçları dünyanın birçok ülkesi ileuyumlu olsa da ileri yaş grubunda artmış anormal smear sonuçlarına rastlanmıştır.
Üçüncü Basamak Bir Sağlık Kuruluşunda 2006-2015 Yılları Arasındaki Servikal Sitoloji Sonuçlarının Değerlendirilmesi
Objectives: The main goal of cervical cancer cytologic screening is to prevent mortality and morbidity associated with cervical cancer. We aimed to retrospectively evaluate the prevalence of cervical cytological abnormalities in patient records obtained from electronic data at our tertiary hospital. Materials and Methods: Demographic characteristics and data on cervical cytological abnormalities were evaluated from patients (n=54999) who underwent Pap tests in our hospital from 2006 to 2015. Results: Data were collected from 54999 patients. Overall, the prevalence of cervical cytological abnormalities was 2.27%; the prevalence of ASCUS, LSIL, and HSIL was 1.29%, 0.27% and 0.11%, respectively. The highest prevalence of HSIL was seen in the group older than 71 years. Conclusion: The abnormal cervical cytological prevalence rate in Turkey is similar to Europe, Israel, and North America. The data from our hospital over 10 years are compatible with data from various centres around the world and the country, apart from the increase in the incidence of abnormal smears in older age groups.
