PAPSMEAR: ASCUS but no HPV test could be doneFrom: Mary (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 27 Jan 2009 21:19:41 -0600 (CST)
I'm confused as to how it's possible to have a satisfactory sample of cells to do a Pap test,and have a subsequent ASCUS result, yet the report then states that there was "insufficient cellularity" to do the usual immediate follow-up HPV test. This was a ThinPrep test, which I understood one of the benefits as being the ability to do an immediate HPV follow-up, eliminating the need for a second Pap test. How much accuracy can I place on the ASCUS result?
