Pathology of the cervix
The uterine cervix is the part of the uterus where the mucous membrane of the uterus is faced with the lining of the vagina. The boundaries between the two types of epithelial change dynamically and create a so-called transformation zone due to hormonal changes and the growth of the woman. It is susceptible to viral infection, which can give rise to a tumor disease. Preventive examinations include the collection (swabs) of the cervix for microscopic examination and the control of the cervix by means of a magnifying device (colposcope). In the case of any uncertainty, we can refine the diagnosis by using Liquid-based cytology (LBC) and by identifying a viral infection of the cervix and its type. If the suspicion persists, we perform a biopsy of the cervix or remove the transformation zone on the self-propelled cylinder. Preventively you can also use vaccination against viral infection in the age of girls from 9 to 13 years (performed by general practitioners), or to improve immunity immediately after removal of the infected transformation zone and prevent the recurrence of infection.
