Yüksek Dereceli Skuamoz İntraepitelyal Lezyonu Olan Hastalarda Punch ve Loop Biyopsinin Karşılaştırılması

Amaç: Servikal punch ve loop biyopsinin performansını karşılaştırmak ve değerlendirmek amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: 2019-2020 yılları arasında Pap smear sonucunda yüksek dereceli skuamoz intraepitelyal lezyon (YDSİL) saptanan ve kolposkopi yapılan ve biyopsi alınan hastalar çalışmaya alınmıştır. Hastaların klinik verileri ve demografik özellikleri retrospektif dosya taraması ile değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmaya 56 tane punch biyopsi (PB) ile 51 tane Loop ile servikal biyopsi alınan hasta dahil edilmiştir. Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalama değerleri PB ve Loop gruplarında sırası ile 35.3 ± 8.2 ve 37.6 ± 10.5 olarak saptandı ve sonuçlarda anlamlı farklılık saptanmadı (P= 0.208). PB grubundaki hastaların %21.4’ü nullipar iken Loop grubunda %21.6 hastanın nullipar olduğu görüldü (P= 0.571). Spesmen genişliği PB ve Loop grubunda ortalama sırası ile 4.9 ± 1.2 mm ve 11.0 ± 1.7 mm olarak saptanmıştır (P< 0.001). Spesmen derinliğinin punch biyopsi alınan grupta daha kısa olduğu gösterildi (PB için 3.9 ± 0.7, Loop için 6.6 ± 1.0; P< 0.001). Minimal kanamalar iki gruptada benzer oranlarda (PB için %8.9, Loop için %9.8) saptandı. Hastalara işlem esnasında ağrı sorgulandığında gruplar arasında farklılık olmadığı tespit edildi (PB için 5.8 ± 1.3, Loop için 6.2 ± 1.8; P= 0.206). Toplam doku puanı 3 parametre kullanılarak hesaplandı. Doku yeterliliği (epitel + stroma içermesi) konusunda gruplar arasında farklılık olmadığı analiz edildi. Sonuç: Loop grubunda spesmen derinliği ve genişliği daha uzun bulunmasına ve koter artefaktının olmasına rağmen PB ve Loop grupları arasında doku yeterliliği, kanama ve ağrı skorları gruplar arasında benzer bulundu. İki biyopsi şeklinin birbirine üstünlüğü kanıtlanamamıştır.

Comparison of Punch and Loop Biopsy in Patients with High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion

Objective: It was aimed to compare and evaluate the performance of cervical punch and loop biopsy. Methods: Patients who were found to have high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (YDSIL) as a result of Pap smear between 2019-2020, and who underwent colposcopy and biopsy were included in the study. The clinical data and demographic characteristics of the patients were evaluated by retrospective file scanning. Patients who had 56 punch biopsy (PB) and 51 Loop cervical biopsies were included in the study. Results: The mean age of the patients was 35.3 ± 8.2 and 37.6 ± 10.5 in the PB and Loop groups, respectively, and no significant difference was found in the results (P= 0.208). While 21.4% of the patients in the PD group were nulliparous, 21.6% of the patients in the Loop group were nulliparous (P= 0.571). The mean specimen width was 4.9 ± 1.2 mm and 11.0 ± 1.7 mm in the PB and Loop groups, respectively (P< 0.001). It was shown that the specimen depth was shorter in the punch biopsy group (3.9 ± 0.7 for PB, 6.6 ± 1.0 for Loop; P< 0.001). Minimal hemorrhages were found at similar rates in both groups (8.9% for PB, 9.8% for Loop). When patients were questioned about pain during the procedure, no difference was found between the groups (5.8 ± 1.3 for PB, 6.2 ± 1.8 for Loop; P= 0.206). Total tissue score was calculated using 3 parameters. It was analyzed that there was no difference between the groups in terms of tissue adequacy (including epithelium + stroma). Conclusion: Although the specimen depth and width were longer in the Loop group and there was cautery artifact, tissue adequacy, bleeding and pain scores were found to be similar between the PB and Loop groups. The superiority of the two biopsy methods over each other has not been proven
