Target biopsy including PHD

After exclusion and possible treatment of a bacterial infection, abnormal Pap test results, CIN II and CIN III, require further testing. Following a previous colposcopy to localize the changes, target biopsy and cervical excochleation is required. The procedure is done on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. Obtained material is then sent for pathohistological examination to confirm or refute the Pap test results and provide guidance for further management. If the procedure is done properly, the biopsy will also have a therapy value. After biopsy, a repeat Pap test should be done in 2 months.
