ABSTRACT
Results of Pap smear examinations in 1989 for disease detection in the female reproductive tract were compiled at Siriraj Hospital. The major technique was VCE. A total of 34,884 Pap smears were taken from females ranging in age from one day to 90 years; the mean age was 36.7 +/- 11.5 years. The percentage of the cytological diagnoses were 51.6 normal smears, 45.3 infection and inflammation, 0.4 few abnormal cells, 1.1 dysplasia, 0.4 carcinoma in situ, 1.0 invasive carcinoma (0.1 keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix, 0.4 large cell nonkeratinizing, 0.1 small cell nonkeratinizing and 0.1 adenocarcinoma; 0.1 adenocarcinoma of the corpus; and 0.2 adenocarcinoma of the ovary) and 0.2 unsatisfactory smears. Of the total number of women who underwent Pap smear examination only 5.0 per cent did so more than once a year. Hence, there should be appropriate treatment and/or sufficient investigation in women with infection and with abnormal smears.
