Burden of CIN2+ diagnoses and conizations in women aged 18-45 years-a retrospective secondary data analysis of German statutory health insurance claims data.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

High grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2+) may progress to cervical cancer. They may be detected by screening and are usually treated by conization. This study aimed at assessing annual proportions of screening, prevalent and incident CIN2+ diagnoses, as well as proportions of (re-)conizations during 24 months follow-up after conization in Germany.

Methods

A descriptive retrospective claims data analysis of the years 2013-2018 was conducted using the InGef Research Database. Women aged 18-45 years with CIN2+ diagnoses were identified by ICD-10-GM codes (N87.1, N87.2, D06.-, and C53.-). Cervical conizations were identified by OPS codes (5-671.0* or 5-671.1*). Screening participation was identified by EBM codes (01730, 01733, 32819 or 32820). Annual proporti
