Previous cytology in patients with invasive carcinoma of the cervix.

The cytologic history of 346 patients presenting with invasive carcinoma of the cervix was reviewed. A total of 74 patients (21%) reported that cervical cytology had been performed in the five years prior to presentation; confirmation of the cytologic history was obtained in 65 cases. Smears were available for review in 34 cases; of 28 smears originally reported as negative, 20 were found to be abnormal on review. The possible reasons for the failure of cytologic detection in these patients are discussed.
