Conséquences obstétricales des conisations à l'anse diathermique et facteurs aggravants

The obstetrical consequences of conisation for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) should be considered since patients affected by these lesions are actually younger and most often desire further pregnancies. The loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), which is currently mostly used, achieves cure rate varying according to the authors between 80 and 95%. However, the most recent datas show an increase of obstetrical morbidity, especially prematurity, after LEEP excision. As the frequency and severity of prematurity is correlated to the size and depth of the LEEP, we should minimize as much as possible the resection for these young patients.
