Very common problem, have had over a dozen in the last ten years, only had one actual reccurence or incomplete excision show up on follow up PaP, just repeated leep and patient has been -ve for five years, some women just don't want a hyst. Quite a few had low grade lesion on follow up PAP's which eventually turned normal.

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.
