Anal High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Men: A Study of 100 Cases With Emphasis on Cytohistologic Correlation
Anorectal cytology (ARC) is a widely used screening tool for anal cancer in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected men who have sex with men (MSM). Its diagnostic accuracy needs to be improved, especially for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs). Using 100 HIV+ MSM with biopsy-pr...

Zusammenfassung: | Anorectal cytology (ARC) is a widely used screening tool for anal cancer in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected men who have sex with men (MSM). Its diagnostic accuracy needs to be improved, especially for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs).
Using 100 HIV+ MSM with biopsy-proven anal HSILs, we correlated histologic/cytologic findings.
Upon review, HSIL cells were present in 58 cytology samples and absent in 42. Positive samples were higher in cellularity and contained transformation zones ( P |
