Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the status of cervical inflammation and indications for cytological screening among non-pregnant women at Bach Mai Hospital.

Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study was applied selecting 493 women examined at the Outpatient Clinic of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Bach Mai Hospital from January 1st, 2024, to March 31st, 2024.

Results: The most common symptom was abnormal vaginal discharge (69.57%). On examination, the most frequent findings were cervicitis (31.64%) and ectropion (20.89%). A total of 296 women (60.04%) were indicated for cervical cytology screening, mainly those at high risk aged 30–49 years. Screening results showed that 58.78% had no abnormalities, 40.54% presented with nonspecific inflammation, 0.68% had ASCUS, and no LSIL or HSIL lesions were detected.

Conclusion: Cytological findings indicated a high burden of inflammation and a low rate of neoplastic abnormalities among women undergoing routine screening.
