Gary if you don't have the leep and Pap smear pathalogy in your hands I would do a colpo; I just did a vag hyst in a 74 y.o. who had had a leep about a decade earlier, colpo was difficult because the cervical stomp was not well exposed but what I thought was HGSIL did indeed turn out to be carcinoma in situ.

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.
