adenocarcinoma in situ of cervix

Adenocarcinoma in situ is an early precancerous lesion of the cervix.

Adenocarcinoma in situ is an adenocarcinoma that is confined to the cervical glands and has not yet broken through the basement membrane. It usually has no obvious symptoms and may be detected by screening. Diagnostic methods include cervical cytology, high-risk HPV testing, and colposcopy combined with cervical biopsy. These tests are essential for early detection and accurate diagnosis.

For diagnosed cervical adenocarcinoma in situ, treatment methods mainly include cervical conization. The purpose of surgery is to remove the lesion tissue and prevent further development of the lesion. Close follow-up is needed after treatment to monitor whether the disease recurs or progresses. Relevant examinations are carried out regularly to detect problems in time and take appropriate measures.

HPV vaccination, good sexual hygiene, regular cervical cancer screening, etc. are important for preventing cervical adenocarcinoma in situ and other cervical lesions.

Although cervical adenocarcinoma in situ is a precancerous lesion, if it can be detected early and treated and followed up, the prognosis is usually better. At the same time, active preventive measures can reduce the risk of its occurrence.
