Summary

It is to investigate to what extent a gentle tissue extraction of CIN lesions of the cervix will bring the same conclusion than the conventional cervix biopsy, but with less pain and morbidity, after patients were undergoing a conisation in order to treat CIN.

Conditions

• CIN
• Cervical Cancer

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	conventional cervix biopsy	Object of this study is the evaluation of two different methods of gaining cervical tissue in order to determine whether, and if so in what extent, a CIN is existent. The first method is a cervical biopsy, the second method is a gentle tissue saving curettage of the cervix uteri. Also is to be investigated that the latter method shows a reduction of pain and morbidity after the procedure. For this reason the pathological outcome of the two methods will be compared to the result of a conisation, which will be received by the patient to cure their cervical lesions.
