| cervical intraepithelial neoplasia | A term which describes precancerous changes to the epithelial cells lining the cervix. The diagnosis is made from the microscopic examination of a PAP smear acquired tissue specimen. Less than 5% of all PAP smears will show cervical dysplasia. The peak incidence is in women 25 to 35 years of age. Risk factors include multiple sexual partners, early onset of sexual activity (less than 18), early childbearing (less than 16) and past medical history of a sexually transmitted disease (for example genital warts, genital herpes, HIV infection). Treatment is based on the degree of dysplasia present, as judged by a pathologist. Treatments include cryotherapy and conisation. Origin: Gr. Plassein = to form (27 Sep 1997) |

| cervical cancer |
Cervical cancer is a malignancy of the cervix. Worldwide, it is the second most common cancer of women. It may present with vaginal bleeding but symptoms may be absent until the cancer is in advanced stages, which has made cervical cancer the focus of intense screening efforts utilizing the Pap smear. Most scientific studies point to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection as a necessary pre-requisite for development of cervical cancer. ...

| cervical dysplasia |
Cervical dysplasia refers to a medical condition of the cervix in which squamous cells on the surface of the cervix undergo a premalignant transformation. This abnormal growth (dysplasia) may lead to the development of cervical cancer if left untreated. Cervical dysplasia can be diagnosed by a biopsy of the cervix. An abnormal Pap smear may lead to a recommendation for colposcopy of the cervix during which the cervix is examined under magnification. ...

| cervical vertebra |
Vertebrae (singular: vertebra) are the individual bones that make up the vertebral column (aka spine), is a flexuous and flexible column.There are thirty-three (33) vertebrae in humans, including the five that are fused to form the sacrum and the four coccygeal bones.The upper three regions comprise the remaining 24, and are grouped under the names cervical (7 vertebrae), thoracic (12 vertebrae) and lumbar (5 vertebrae), according to the regions they occupy. ...
