Abstract
ABSTRACT
The cure of a precancerous lesion of the cervix depends especially on the complete or incomplete character of the ablation. Immediately after ablation a colposcopic examination of the cone is carried out with toluidine blue; the pathological tissue is easily recognized. The ablation is complete if the section is located 5 mm from the pathological tissue; it is borderline if the section is located less than 5 mm from the pathological tissue; it is incomplete if the section is located in the pathological tissue. With this technique of colposcopy of the cone during surgery the rate of failures is low and can be reduced with adequate training.
