Abstract
Colposcopic, cytological and histological (endocervical curettage) evaluation of the remaining cervical stump was done 3 yr after 99 supravaginal uterine amputations performed for benign conditions. Peroperative electrocoagulation of the endocervical mucosa had been done in all the patients and postoperative ectocervical electrocoagulation in 39 (39.4%) cases. No active inflammatory, premalignant or maligant changes were detected at the 3-yr examination of the cervix. Furthermore, normal adenomatous epithelium had been wholly or partly relaced by squamous epithelium in 89% of the cases.Keywords
