Comparison of the Cervex ‐Brush alone to Cytobrush plus Cervex‐Brush for detection of cervical dysplasia in women with a transformation zone type 3

ConclusionsWhen compared to Cervex ‐Brush sampling alone, the addition of a Cytobrush improves endocervical sampling but does not improve cytological predictability of CIN2+ in women with a TZ3. These data suggest that women who will reliably attend for cytological follow‐up can be safely referred to primary care for a Cervex‐B rush alone.This article is protected by copyright.
