Symposium part 3 : Should pathologists diagnose endocervical preneoplastic lesions "less than" adenocarcinoma in situ?: Point

The insufficient state of knowledge concerning the biology of endocervical glandular lesions is compounded by the lack of universal diagnostic criteria for recognizing endocervical glandular dysplasia. This study addressed the issue of diagnostic reproducibility of noninvasive endocervical glandular lesions and tested the proposed new scoring scheme designed to improve this reproducibility. We have shown that the application of this scheme has significantly improved interobserver agreement in all diagnostic categories. Moreover, the results of this study lend support to the recommendation not to diagnose endocervical glandular dysplasia in the clinical setting, although this category can be still reliably separated out for research purposes. Application of our scoring scheme will bring uniformity to the diagnosis of noninvasive endocervical glandular lesions and allow the study of a precursor to endocervical adenocarcinoma.
