Abstract

Of the different strategies available for managing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 (CIN1), testing for high-risk subtypes of the human papillomavirus (hr-HPV) DNA at 12 months has the highest sensitivity for predicting the development of CIN2 or CIN3 and leads to the lowest rate of referral to repeat colposcopy (TABLE 1). If the hr-HPV DNA test result is negative at 12 months, then the patient may return to routine cytology screening. If the hr-HPV DNA test result is positive, the patient should undergo repeat colposcopy.
