  • Title: [Cervical mucus before and after cryotherapy of benign changes in the vaginal part of the cervix uteri].
    Author: Marić R, Filipovska-Obradović V, Komlenski V.
    Journal: Jugosl Ginekol Opstet; 1983; 23(3-4):81-3. PubMed ID: 6664107.
    Abstract:
    Bacteriological findings obtained by the Cryo-method of cervical smears before and after the treatment of cervicitis and ectopia in the vaginal part of the uterine cervix of 64 women revealed certain essential changes. Before the Cryo-therapy, pathogenic microorganisms were verified in 49 patients (76.56%), while saprophytic flora was isolated from 15 patients (23.45%). After the treatment, this proportion was significantly changed: saprophytic flora was isolated from 45 patients (70.34%), while pathogenic flora continued persisting in 19 patients (29.67%). Eight weeks following the treatment, instead of a dense, non-elastic, opaque, cellular secretion before the Cryo-therapy, a clear elastic, acellular mucus was recorded.
