ABSTRACT

The objective of this investigation is to describe by means of the exfoliative cytology saprophyte the vaginal flora as much pathological in women with hysterectomy.
Material and methods. They analyzed frotis vaginal of the patients who went to the Opportune Detection of Cancer program in the Laboratorio de Biología Celular de la Facultad de Medicina de la Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, Mexico from the 2001 to 2007 to be realized cervicovaginal exfoliative cytology. The total of patients was of 818, from who 768 women without hysterectomy excluded themselves.
Results. Fifty patients had hysterectomy, 16% (8/50) of the total of the hysterectomy patients presented normal vaginal flora and 84% (42/50) presented alteration of the vaginal flora caused by abundant coconuts 18%, fungi 16%, lactobacilos 14%, Trichomonas vaginalis 4% and mixed flora 32%.
Conclusion. In the study were a high percentage of women with hysterectomy who attend with pathological vaginal flora. The women with hysterectomy would have to be realized an exfoliative cytology regularly, especially women with active sexual life by the risk of contracting infections of sexual transmission.
