Clinicopathologic significance and treatment of ASC-US in cervical cytology.

CONCLUSION: women with ASC-US have a wide range of final pathologic results, and it can be the initial warning of high-grade CIN or cervical cancer. In China, HPV (DNA) testing triage is a useful shunting measure for ASC-US patients, and an immediate colposcopy is a consequential strategy for dealing with ASC-US cytology to increase the detection rate of high-grade cervical lesions or invasive cancer.
