Abnormal pap smear results can be due to several causes. The reason for a change in the cervical cells can be infection, inflammation, or even changes in the menstrual cycle. In some cases the abnormal pap smear results can be due to pre-cancerous or cancerous cells. There are a variety of tests that can be performed in the event of cancerous or pre-cancerous cells in the cervix. Colposcopies, Endocervical curettage, and biopsies are all procedures that can be performed to further prove the presence of cancerous or precancerous cells. The colposcopy is where the vagina, vulva, and cervix are examined with an instrument called a colposcope, which allows the physician to see the cervix clearly using a bright light and to use magnification to see areas more clearly. If any abnormal areas are seen, then a sample biopsy is taken via an Endocervical curettage where sample cells are scooped out and sent to a lab for further examination.
