  • Title: Cryosurgical treatment of early cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
    Author: Coney P, Walton LA, Edelman DA, Fowler WC.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1983 Oct; 62(4):463-6. PubMed ID: 6888824.
    Abstract:
    Two hundred forty patients, ages 12 to 54 years, with biopsy-confirmed early cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN I) treated by cryosurgery were reviewed. CIN I has been viewed historically as having high rates of remission or stabilization. The initial cure rate was 89%, with a 97% cure rate after retreatment of failures. All failures were confirmed histologically. The initial cure rates are no better than those for higher grades of CIN. Thus, CIN I should be viewed with the same seriousness as CIN II or CIN III.
