Introduction
Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia type 1 infection and human papillomavirus are considered low-grade lesions (LSIL), and refer to atypical cellular changes in the lower third of the epithelium, often accompanied by atypia koilocytotic (effect HPV).
The annual incidence in the United States of CIN I-LSIL is 4%. According to the report of the Secretary of Health cancer screening program in Mexico, in 2011, we identified 1190 cases of cervical cancer, 70.050 of low-grade lesions and high-grade lesions 20.526. (SSA, 2010)
The risk of lesion regression of low degree is 60%, 30% persistence, 10% progression to CIN 3 and the risk of progression to invasive cancer 1% .
There are two types of positions on management for these lesions: immediate treatment vs expectant management. The decision of the type of approach will depend on the cytological findings, colposcopy, cervical biopsy and the characteristics of each patient (age, pregnancy, fertility, etc.).
