Factors Associated With Residual Disease In The Central Cone

Completed
Conditions
Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia
Registration Number
NCT03788850
Lead Sponsor
National Institute of Cancerología
Brief Summary

Cervical conization using the loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is the standard treatment for patients with high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. Several studies have shown that excising a central cone reduces the rate of positive endocervical margins. The purpose of this study is to identify clinicopathological factors associated with residual disease in the central cone and to develop a predictive model to better determine which patients may require this additional procedure.

Detailed Description

This study pretends to create a retrospective database including all patient who underwent a loop electrosurgical excision procedure by treatment for high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and create a a predictive model for top-hat resection in patients with high grade CIN
