Preoperative Management of Medications for Neurologic Diseases
Neurologic diseases are prevalent in patients undergoing invasive procedures; yet, no societal guidelines exist as to best practice in management of perioperative medications prescribed to treat these disorders.

Negative loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) following cervical biopsy diagnosis of high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion
CONCLUSION: The study highlights the diagnostic difficulties of distinguishing HSIL from immature squamous metaplasia. The practical implication is that in cases with non-16/18 high risk HPV which have thin epithelium and fall short of definite morphologic criteria of HSIL, presence of immature squamous metaplasia should be carefully evaluated. The specific role of CK7 and CK17 which highlight squamocolumnar junctional cells and metaplastic cells, respectively, needs to be explored in these cases.PMID:35027995 | PMC:PMC8748010 (Source: International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology)
