Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a therapeutical modality which offers a minimally invasive alternative for high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) treatment. This prospective randomized controlled clinical trial aims to compare two PDT protocols for the treatment of histopathologically similar high-grade CIN. The patients were followed 60 days and two years after the treatment by cytology, hybrid capture and pathology analysis after the Excision of Transformation Zone (ETZ). Preliminary results are indicating, after two years follow-up, that combining ecto and endocervix treatment leads to better cure rates of high-grade CIN.
