[Cytologic diagnosis of malignant tumors of the cervix].

Cytologic patterns of squamous-cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, malignant adenoma, and carcinoid of the cervix uteri are presented. Problems in the differential diagnosis of these conditions are discussed. Special attention is paid to the cytologic criteria for detection of intraepithelial and microinvasive squamous-cell and glandular carcinomas. Cytologic investigation may essentially contribute to timely diagnosis of the condition.

Adenocarcinoma↗

[The examination of vaginal discharge].

Discusses basic principles of hormonal cytodiagnosis. Emphasizes the role of the hypothalamohypophyseal system in regulation of sexual gland function and ovarian effect on vaginal epithelium maturation in various phases of the menstrual cycle. Shows potentialities of hormonal profile assessment on the basis of various indices and the total cytologic picture. Characterizes the mechanisms that provide epithelial resistance to pathogenic factors. Pays special attention to cellular composition of smears in inflammatory diseases induced by pathogenic fungi, protozoa, bacteria, viruses.

[Cytologic diagnosis of background and precancerous conditions based on specimens from the uterine cervix].

The authors emphasize the value of cytologic diagnosis in the detection and treatment of various conditions that may be regarded as direct or indirect precursors of carcinoma of the cervix uteri. Conditions for obtaining and treatment of the material for high-quality cytologic analysis are described. Potentialities and clinical value of the cytologic diagnosis are discussed, as are specific features of the cytograms in squamous-cell metaplasia, endocervicitis, leukoplakia, virus-induced changes in the epithelium, and dysplasia of various severity. The authors point to the important role of cytologic diagnosis in examinations of women with apparent gynecologic diseases and without manifest clinical or visual changes in the cervix uteri.
