Question

A 39-year-old female with known cervical dysplasia had been seen in the outpatient surgery department the previous week for a colposcopy and biopsy. Pathologic exam of the biopsied tissue was inconclusive but suggested the possibility of a malignancy in the cervix. Before the patient could return to the outpatient surgery department for definitive treatment, she began bleeding heavily and was admitted to the hospital. A conization of the cervix was performed by loop electrosurgical excision (LEEP) using a colposcope for guidance in order to destroy the site of the possible malignancy. A portion of the cervix was submitted for histopathologic examination with the findings returned as carcinoma of the uterine cervix. The patient will follow up in the office.
