Follow-up
After treatment for noninvasive
epithelial cell abnormalities, either by ablation or excision, a period of
follow-up Pap tests every 6 months for 2 years is generally recommended, with
variations depending on the severity of the lesion treated. Most patients may
return to a routine screening thereafter. If a subsequent Pap test is abnormal,
it is evaluated in the same manner as a new abnormal Pap test. The importance
of follow-up should be stressed to the patient, because of the greater risk of
recurrent abnormalities.
