Results of Smears
One case of malignant squamous cells was found and the woman was referred
to her general medical practitioner for advice.
Two cases of atypical squamous cells were found and repeat smears were
recommended by the pathologist to be taken after a period of three months.
Arrangements were made for the women concerned to receive the smears at one
of the local cytology clinics.
Fourteen women were found to have trichomonas vaginalis present, eight
women were found to have mycetia present and one woman was found to have senile
vaginitis. All these women were referred to their own general medical practitioners
for advice and treatment.
No abnormalities were detected in 378 women and 11 women received breast
examination only (post hysterectomy, etc.)
For technical reasons 2 women were required to have the smears repeated
and were referred to their local cytology clinics for these to be carried out
again.
