Conization

Conization is the surgical removal of tissue that looks like a cone. This operation is most often performed to excise an area of ​​the cervix (see Conization (cervix)).

CONIZATION (CERVIKAL) (cone biopsy) - surgical removal of a cone-shaped segment of tissue from the cervix, performed using a colposcope. Typically, this operation is performed if a cervical smear indicates that a woman has cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN): the affected tissue is removed and examined histologically and cytologically to confirm the suspected diagnosis.



Today we will talk about a medical procedure that is often performed on a woman's cervix. We are talking about the surgical removal of cone-shaped tissue - conization (coniwtion).

Conization is an invasive procedure in which the doctor removes a cone-shaped segment of tissue from the cervix. It is usually performed when there is a lesion on the cervix called cervical intraepithelial neoplasm (CIN). This is a lesion that can be caused by the human papillomavirus or other factors. If CIN is present, doctors use this procedure to remove abnormal cells, examine them under a microscope, and determine further treatment tactics.
