OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the role of genital pathogens in postoperative morbidity following diathermy loop excision of the transformation zone (LETZ) of the uterine cervix.
METHODS: Patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) who underwent diathermy LETZ were included in a prospective study. Cervical swabs for genital pathogens were collected before the diathermy procedure. After surgery, women were followed-up regarding the occurrence and severity of postoperative pain, bleeding, and discharge.
RESULTS: Genital pathogens were present in 463 of 788 (58.8%) cases. The most frequently isolated groups of microorganisms were group B β-hemolytic Streptococcus, α-hemolytic Streptococcus, Enterococcus species, and coliforms. In patients with genital pathogens, postoperative pain was present in 298 (37.8%), discharge in 262 (33.2%), and bleeding in 236 (29.9%) cases. In patients without genital pathogens, 199 (25.3%) experienced pain, 181 (23.0%) discharge, and 143 (18.1%) bleeding. The differences between the 2 groups were not statistically significant (χ(2) for pain=0.675; χ(2) for discharge=0.031; χ(2) for bleeding=3.444; P>0.05).
CONCLUSION: Genital pathogens are very common among patients with CIN and do not affect the occurrence or severity of pain, discharge, or postoperative bleeding after diathermy LETZ.
