Risk Factors of Preterm Birth in Women After Local Treatment of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia - a Retrospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Purpose A previous cervical intraepithelial neoplasia is associated with an increased obstetrical risk. It was the aim of the study to identify risk factors of preterm birth in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in dependence of the treatment modality (excisional vs. ablative). Methods Women with treated cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and subsequent pregnancy (n = 155) were included in this retrospective study. Methods of treatment were either conization by large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) or ablative laser vaporization. Results Of the total population 60.6% (n = 94) had a conization and 39.4% (n = 61) a laser vaporization alone. The frequency of preterm birth < 37 weeks was 9.7% (n = 15) without differences between conization an
