If she is happy being followed great! I only suggested cone if she is an overly anxious pt demanding assurances there is nothing there and wishing minimalist approach. She does have CIN I,recurrent. I suggest cone only if an extirpatiave procedure felt necessary and that Leep probably would not get rid of the abnormal PAPS or reach the CIN I. sAm

Sam:

Thanks for the input.

Her colpo was easy and adequate, and ECC negative, so I wonder why you think she has a lesion higher in the canal.

She has opted for serial follow-up, and I have suggested a colpo, pap and maybe HPV test in 6 months. I realize that is more than the current guidelines suggest, but this woman has had CIS before, and hasn't changed partners, etc.

Bikini? She is an exercise fiend, and has zilch body fat and a scaphoid abdomen that would be the envy of us all!

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
