What Is Squamous Metaplasia?
Chronic cervicitis, cervical sac.
Squamous cell metaplasia
- Squamous cell metaplasia refers to local epithelial squamous metaplasia and local squamous epithelial hyperplasia, indicating that low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions are of the first grade and may have precancerous lesions. It is a cytological test, so it does not represent a histological lesion of the entire cervix.

- A colposcopy biopsy and then a pathology examination can confirm the condition of your cervix.
- Squamous cell metaplasia needs to be distinguished from the following symptoms. Chronic cervicitis: It is the most common gynecological disease, especially in married and fertile women. The disease is usually inflammation caused by pathogens invading the cervix after childbirth, abortion or surgery. The disease is a chronic chronic change process, not necessarily a transition from acute cervicitis, and its clinical manifestations are as follows:
- (1) Increased leucorrhea, viscous viscous or purulent, or bloody.
- (2) Vulvar itch caused by leucorrhea stimulation. In severe cases, low back pain and lower abdomen swelling may occur, which may worsen during menstruation or after intercourse. Anal pain, frequent urination, and dysuria may occur during defecation.
- (3) The local manifestations of the cervix have many forms, such as cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, cervical gland cystitis, cervical polyps, cervicitis, cervical eversion and so on.
- Cervical hypertrophy: It is caused by repeated and long-term stimulation of chronic inflammation, which causes congestion, edema, and connective tissue hyperplasia of cervical tissue.
- Cervical gland cysts: When chronic inflammation of the cervix causes the glands and surrounding tissues to block the openings of the gland ducts, forming a retentive cyst, called a cervical cyst.
- A colposcopy biopsy and then a pathology examination can confirm the condition of your cervix.
- One is LEEP (suitable for II outpatient surgery), and the other is cold-cone taper (suitable for III inpatient surgery). Listen to the doctor specifically.
