MAYORGA-BAUTISTA, Citlally Dolores et al. Concordance in cytological, colposcopic and histological findings in premalignant lesions of the cervix. Ginecol. obstet. Méx. [online]. 2023, vol.91, n.1, pp.32-38. Epub 14-Abr-2023. ISSN 0300-9041. https://doi.org/10.24245/gom.v91i1.8249.
OBJECTIVE:
To determine the concordance in cytologic, colposcopic and histopathologic findings in premalignant lesions of the uterine cervix.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Cross-sectional, retrospective and comparative study, carried out in the dysplasia clinic of the Hospital General Regional 1 of the state of Querétaro, Mexico, from January 1 to December 2020, based on information from the records of women with cytology, colposcopy and histopathology (biopsy) report with low- and high-grade intraepithelial lesion. The statistical analysis plan included confidence intervals for averages and percentages. The weighted Kappa Index was used to determine the level of concordance.
RESULTS:
Two hundred and ninety records were analyzed. The mean age of the patients was 36 years, the weighted kappa index was k = 0.41 (95%CI: 0.33-0.53) for cytology and colposcopy with a moderate value (fair). For cytology and biopsy, it was k= 0.33 (95%CI: 0.22-0.49) with a poor value (medium). For colposcopy and biopsy, it was k = 0.61 (95%CI: 0.49-0.72) with a value of good (substantial) agreement.
CONCLUSION:
Between cytology and colposcopy the concordance coefficient was moderate, for cytology and biopsy it was poor, while for colposcopy and biopsy it was a substantial.
