SALAS, Mario; NOGUERA, María E; PETROSINO, Pierina  and  ARENAS, Asmiria. Neoplasias intraepiteliales cervicales en adolescentes. Rev Obstet Ginecol Venez [online]. 2014, vol.74, n.1, pp.24-29. ISSN 0048-7732.

Objective: To determine the frequency and pathologic evolution of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in adolescents who attended in the Gynecology Service of the University Hospital of the Andes in Merida, Venezuela. Methods: We conducted a longitudinal study, which evaluated 74 adolescent patients with cervical pathology, collected over a period of six years. The data were organized in tables and figures. Statistical correlations were made by Chi square method. Subsequently, we analyzed the clinical course of the lesions present in the group studied, determining their persistence, regression or progression. Results: The increased frequency of cervical pathology is in the group between 18 and 19 years. In smears of income, 43.24 % of the cases reported low grade squamous intraepitheliel lesion and 5.41 % high grade squamous intraepitheliel lesion. In the first biopsy, 60.81 % presents cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 1/ human papillomavirus. 9.46 % reported cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 and 8.11 % present cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3/cancer in situ. 90.54 % of the patients had histological signs suggestive of human papillomavirus infection. Regarding the use of electrosurgery, the procedure was omitted from the 77.03 %. 14.86 % underwent radiosurgery cone. Cones reports show that 54.55 % reported cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 1/human papillomavirus, and 27.27 % reported cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3. When analyzing the evolution of the disease, it is observed that 82.60 % had regression of their lesions. Conclusions: By age and immune competence, management of cervical lesions in adolescents should be conservative. In a high percentage of the study group, remained a conservative therapy and found a high rate of regression.
