Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther 2024; 48:104247. [PMID: 38871014 DOI: 10.1016/j.pdpdt.2024.104247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prevention of high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) infection and effective medical intervention of persistent HPV infection and precancerous lesions are critical for the prevention of cervical cancer. AIMS The aim of this retrospective comparative study was to evaluate the outcomes of ALA PDT and observation only in the management of low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL). METHODS In PDT Group (n = 138), ALA PDT was applied to patients with colposcopic biopsy confirmed cervical LSIL accompanied with HR-HPV infection longer than 1 year or HPV 16/18 subtype infection. Cervical LSIL only patients received 3 times of ALA PDT and those with concurrent cervical canal or vaginal lesions received 6 times ALA PDT. Control Group (n = 69) received observation only. Colposcopy, TCT and HPV typing were performed before and after treatment. Patients were followed up for up to two years. RESULT The observation group showed 26.1%, 34.8% and 53.6% HR-HPV negative conversion at 3-6, 12 and 24 months, respectively. LSIL regression rate of the observation group was 33.33%, 36.23% and 65.22% at 3-6, 12 and 24 months, respectively. There was 62.32%, 80.56% and 89.22% patients achieved HPV clearance at 3-6, 12 and 24 months after PDT treatment, respectively. The LSIL remission rate was 89.86%, 94.40% and 96.08% at 3-6, 12 and 24 months after ALA PDT, respectively. The abnormal TCT (≧ ASCUS) was reduced from 92% to 10.1%, 4.6% and 3.9% at 3-6, 12 and 24 months after ALA PDT, respectively. The patient age was not a factor affecting the clearance of HPV infection and the LSIL regression rate of PDT treatment. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that the application of multiple ALA PDT treatments has added value in achieving both short-term and long-term HPV and lesion clearance.

Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther 2024; 49:104283. [PMID: 39032666 DOI: 10.1016/j.pdpdt.2024.104283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 07/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical cancer ranks the fourth most prevalent type of cancer worldwide, characterized by a notably low survival rate, particularly in its metastatic stage. Despite 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) demonstrating potential anti-tumor effects against cervical cancer, the intricate mechanisms underlying its efficacy necessitate further investigation. Here, the study aims to elucidate the impact of ALA-PDT on the cancer cell viability, invasion and migration, alongside delineating the underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS Cervical cancer SiHa cells were subjected to ALA and red light irradiation, and we then measured the ALA-PDT's effects on cell functions using various assays. The potential interaction between miR-152-3p and JAK1 was explored through bioinformatics analyses and validated by dual-luciferase reporter assays. Post-transfection with miR-152-3p and JAK1 vectors, cellular functions were re-evaluated. The efficacy of ALA-PDT in tumor suppression was further investigated through tumor transplantation experiment in vivo. RESULTS ALA-PDT markedly suppressed SiHa cell viability, invasion and migration, impacting critical markers of proliferation, apoptosis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT). And these effects were echoed by the inhibition of miR-152-3p. JAK1 was identified as a direct target of miR-152-3p, and ALA-PDT was found to regulate the expression levels of miR-152-3p, consequently influencing the JAK1/STAT1 signaling pathway. Augmentation of miR-152-3p expression and inhibition of the JAK1/STAT1 pathway mitigated the anti-cancer effects of ALA-PDT, whereas JAK1 overexpression diminished these effects. In vivo analyses demonstrated that ALA-PDT suppressed tumor growth and modulated the miR-152-3p/JAK1/STAT1 pathway expression. CONCLUSIONS ALA-PDT inhibits the viability, invasion, and migration of cervical cancer SiHa cells by modulating the miR-152-3p/JAK1/STAT1 axis, offering a promising therapeutic avenue for combating invasive cervical cancer.

Comparative Study of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid-Mediated Photodynamic Therapy and the Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure for the Treatment of Cervical High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions. Pharmaceutics 2024; 16:686. [PMID: 38794347 PMCID: PMC11125031 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics16050686] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2024] [Revised: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
The loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is a common treatment for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Photodynamic therapy (PDT) mediated by 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is a non-invasive modality that has been used for treating precancerous diseases and HPV infections. This comparative study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ALA PDT and the LEEP in the treatment of cervical high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs). Patient records were reviewed and HSIL patients with HPV infections (24-51 years old) who underwent PDT or LEEP treatment were selected. Efficacy was analyzed blindly based on HPV-DNA, cytology, and colposcopy-directed biopsy obtained at 6 months after treatment. Treatment-related discomfort and side effects were also analyzed. Cure rates of 88.1% and 70.0% were achieved for the PDT group and LEEP group (p < 0.05), respectively. HPV-negative conversion rates of 81.0% and 62.0% were achieved for the PDT group and LEEP group (p < 0.05), respectively. The overall lesion remission rate of the PDT group was 19% higher than that of the LEEP group. The incidence of side effects was much lower in the PDT group. These results show that ALA PDT is a feasible non-invasive treatment for cervical HSIL.

OBJECTIVE The study analyzed HiPorfin-Photodynamic therapy (PDT) for young women with cervial high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) and evaluated the impact of PDT on their pregnancy and delivery. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 4 patients (21-33 years old) were treated with HiPorfin® (2 mg/kg) PDT in 2019-2022. 1 patient suffered from cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)Ⅱ and 3 patients from CIN Ⅲ. 630 nm laser light irradiated the cervical surface and endocervical canal with light dose of 150 J/cm2 and 100-120 J/cm2 respectively. RESULTS The median observation time period was 40.5 months. Cure rate, HPV eradication rate and negative conversion rate of cytology were all 100.0 % at 3, 6 and 12 months. All cervical canal lesions completely turned negative. No recurrence occurred during the long-term follow-up period. None of patients suffered from infertility. Three patients delivered vaginally and one delivered by C-section to healthy infants at term. CONCLUSION HiPorfin® PDT for cervical HSIL was proved to be a safe method without adverse effects on female fertility and allowing these women to have healthy, full-term children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 5-Aminolevulinic acid-mediated photodynamic therapy (5-ALA-PDT) is a possible minimally-invasive treatment for high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (HSIL). The present study was carried out to assess the effect of 5-ALA-PDT and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) in cervical squamous intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2) combined with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection. METHODS In this study, 190 patients with CIN2 and HR-HPV infection were finally included. They were divided into the LEEP Group (n = 116) and PDT Group (n = 74) according to gynecologist's recommendation and patient's willingness. All patients were followed up at 4-6 months and 12 months after treatment, including HPV testing, cytology, and colposcopy examination. RESULTS (1) 4-6 months after treatment, the pathological regression rate was 97.30 % (72/74) in the PDT group and 98.28 % (114/116) in the LEEP group (P = 0.952). The HPV clearance rate was 81.08 % (60/74) in the PDT group and 80.17 % (93/116)in the LEEP group (P = 0.877). (2) 12 months after treatment, the pathological regression rate was 93.24 % (69/74) in the PDT group and 96.55 % (112/116) in the LEEP group (P = 0.486). The recurrence rate of CIN2 was 4.05 % (3/74) in the PDT group and 1.72 % (2/116) in the LEEP group (P = 0.608). The HPV clearance rate was 90.54 % (67/74) in the PDT group and 89.66 % (104/116)in the LEEP group (P = 0.843). The reinfection rate of HR-HPV was 5.41 % (4/74) in the PDT group and 1.72 % (2/116) in the LEEP group (P = 0.322). (3) The adverse reactions in the PDT Group were slightly lower than that in the LEEP Group (P = 0.4956), but the incidence of vaginal bleeding in the PDT group was lower than that in the LEEP group during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The effectiveness of 5-ALA-PDT is similar to LEEP for CIN2 with less side effects. Therefore, 5-ALA-PDT, a non-invasive treatment, may be an effective method for CIN2 patients of childbearing age.

Abstract
Background Cervical cancer poses a considerable worldwide health issue, where infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV) plays a vital role as a risk factor. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive treatment for HPV-related cervical lesions, which uses photosensitizers and light to selectively destroy abnormal cells. Objectives Our objective is to present a comprehensive overview of the different types of molecules employed in PDT to reduce the occurrence and fatality rates associated with cervical cancer. Design Scoping review and bibliometric analysis. Methods The article explores clinical trials investigating the efficacy of PDT in treating low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, as well as preclinical approaches utilizing various molecules for PDT in cervical cancer. Furthermore, the article sheds light on potential molecules for PDT enhancement, examining their properties through computer modeling simulations, molecular docking, and assessing their advantages and disadvantages. Results Our findings demonstrate that PDT holds promise as a therapeutic approach for treating cervical lesions associated with HPV and cervical cancer. Additionally, we observe that the utilization of diverse dye classes enhances the anticancer effects of PDT. Conclusion Among the various molecules employed in PDT, functionalized fullerene exhibits a notable inclination toward overexpressed receptors in cervical cancer cells, making it a potential candidate for intensified use in PDT. However, further research is needed to evaluate its long-term effectiveness and safety.

Abstract
This study provides an overview of the effectiveness and safety of PDT for the treatment of HPV-associated precancerous cervical conditions and contains recent findings from relevant research studies. A comprehensive literature search of MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane Central Library, and Google Scholar was conducted, including analytic epidemiological studies, and 11 papers were included. The narrative synthesis approach was used to summarize the results of the included studies. Studies were critically appraised using The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) tool for assessing the risk of bias. The results of the study demonstrate that CRR for HPV remission ranges from 66.7 % to 92.73 %, whereas for CIN1 it fluctuates from 57.1 % to 83.3 %. The frequency of recurrence of the disease ranged from 3.3 % to 8.9 % during the follow-up period of up to 2 years. Adverse events were observed in 8 (66 %) studies and the most common were cervical stenosis, abdominal pain, vaginal pain, and focal edema. Five types of topical and intravenous applications along with lasers of various wavelengths and intensities were mostly used. However, all studies demonstrated relatively similar results. According to the results, PDT has demonstrated favorable outcomes, but no impressive effect on the treatment of CIN. It should be emphasized, that the effectiveness of PDT for the treatment of HPV-associated CIN may vary depending on some variables, including the kind of PDT agent used, the dosage, duration and frequency of PDT administration, the severity and location of the lesions, and the host immunological response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) is one of two categories of cervical intraepithelial lesions. Given that controversy exists regarding its management, this comparative study aimed to evaluate the effect of 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) in treating LSIL of the high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV)-infected cervix. METHODS A total of 218 patients (25-45 years old) with cervical LSIL associated with HR-HPV who underwent ALA-PDT, loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), or observation only were included. The clearance rates of cervical LSIL and HR-HPV between the ALA-PDT, LEEP, and observation groups were compared at 6 and 12 months follow-up. Adverse reactions were also compared. The factors affecting the clearance on ALA-PDT of cervical LSIL were evaluated. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in lesion and HR-HPV clearance rates between the ALA-PDT and LEEP groups at 6 and 12 months. However, the lesion and HR-HPV clearance rates were significantly higher in the ALA-PDT group than that in the observation group. The adverse reaction rate was significantly lower in the ALA-PDT group than in the LEEP group. CONCLUSION For patients with cervical LSIL, the lesion and HR-HPV clearance rates after ALA-PDT were close to those after LEEP and significantly higher than in the observation group. Moreover, the adverse reaction rate for ALA-PDT was much lower than that for LEEP. Therefore, ALA-PDT provides a new option for the minimally invasive treatment of cervical LSIL.

Abstract
Low-cost optical imaging technologies have the potential to reduce inequalities in healthcare by improving the detection of pre-cancer or early cancer and enabling more effective and less invasive treatment. In this Review, we summarise technologies for in vivo widefield, multi-spectral, endoscopic, and high-resolution optical imaging that could offer affordable approaches to improve cancer screening and early detection at the point-of-care. Additionally, we discuss approaches to slide-free microscopy, including confocal imaging, lightsheet microscopy, and phase modulation techniques that can reduce the infrastructure and expertise needed for definitive cancer diagnosis. We also evaluate how machine learning-based algorithms can improve the accuracy and accessibility of optical imaging systems and provide real-time image analysis. To achieve the potential of optical technologies, developers must ensure that devices are easy to use; the optical technologies must be evaluated in multi-institutional, prospective clinical tests in the intended setting; and the barriers to commercial scale-up in under-resourced markets must be overcome. Therefore, test developers should view the production of simple and effective diagnostic tools that are accessible and affordable for all countries and settings as a central goal of their profession.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To use logistic regression to analyze the attributes underlying patients' treatment options for low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) complicated with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection, and identify the best benefit group of different treatment options. METHODS Clinical data of 197 LSIL patients with HR-HPV infection between June 2009 and February 2022 were collected. According to the treatment options chosen by the patients, they were divided into the interferon, photodynamic therapy, follow-up observation, and focused ultrasound (FUS) treatment groups. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors, including age, occupation, education level, maternity history, reason for encounter, route of consultation, annual personal and household income, screening for related risk factors, and identifying the best benefit group of different treatment options. RESULTS One-way ANOVA revealed a statistically significant difference in age, education level, maternity history, reason for encounter, and annual household income (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed on these five factors, indicating that age ≤35 years, high school educational level or higher, and no childbirth history were independent risk factors influencing patients' choices of FUS treatment. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the age threshold of 31 years. CONCLUSION Age, educational level, and maternity history were independent risk factors influencing patients' choice of treatment modality for LSIL complicated with HR-HPV infection. Age ≤31 years, high school, equivalent, or higher educational level, and no childbirth yielded a higher rate of choosing FUS treatment for LSIL patients with HR-HPV infection.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and related diseases are clinical challenges. The efficacy of 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) using red laser (630 ± 5 nm) is remarkable and safe. In this study, we aim to investigate the efficacy of ALA-450 nm PDT comparing with ALA-635 nm PDT. We detected cell proliferation and cell apoptosis through MTT assay and flow cytometry assay respectively. Flow cytometry assay determined the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. Western blotting analysis investigated the protein expression. In vivo, immunohistochemical staining assay and TUNEL assay were performer to detect cell apoptosis. ALA-450 nm PDT inhibited the proliferation of End1 and HeLa cells, promoted cell apoptosis more effectively than ALA-635 nm PDT, and induced cell death probably through increasing the intracellular ROS generation and caspase-dependent apoptosis pathway. In vivo, ALA-450 nm PDT significantly inhibited tumour growth and activated cell apoptosis. The ALA-450 nm PDT had an advantage over ALA-635 nm PDT on inhibiting the proliferation of End1 and HeLa cells and inducing cell apoptosis. The ALA-450 nm PDT might be a promising therapeutic strategy for eradicating the HR-HPV infected cells and promoting the integration of diagnosis and treatment of HR-HPV related diseases.HighlightsWe combined 5-aminolevulinic acid with 450 nm blue laser using as a novel type of photodynamic therapy.The ALA-450 nm PDT had an advantage over ALA-635 nm PDT on inhibition of the proliferation of End1 and HeLa cells and inducing cell apoptosis in vitro and in vivo.The ALA-450 nm PDT may provide a novel alternative therapeutic option in patients with persistent HPV infection and promote the integration of diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most prevalent sexually transmitted virus globally. Persistent high-risk HPV infection can result in cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer, with 70% of cervical cancer cases associated with high-risk types HPV16 and 18. HPV infection imposes a significant financial and psychological burden. Therefore, studying methods to eradicate HPV infection and halt the progression of precancerous lesions remains crucial. This review comprehensively explores the mechanisms underlying HPV-related cervical lesions, including the viral life cycle, immune factors, epithelial cell malignant transformation, and host and environmental contributing factors. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive overview of treatment methods for HPV-related cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer. Our focus is on immunotherapy, encompassing HPV therapeutic vaccines, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and advanced adoptive T cell therapy. Furthermore, we summarize the commonly employed drugs and other nonsurgical treatments currently utilized in clinical practice for managing HPV infection and associated cervical lesions. Gene editing technology is currently undergoing clinical research and, although not yet employed officially in clinical treatment of cervical lesions, numerous preclinical studies have substantiated its efficacy. Therefore, it holds promise as a precise treatment strategy for HPV-related cervical lesions.

Abstract
Various female reproductive disorders affect millions of women worldwide and bring many troubles to women's daily life. Let alone, gynecological cancer (such as ovarian cancer and cervical cancer) is a severe threat to most women's lives. Endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and other chronic diseases-induced pain have significantly harmed women's physical and mental health. Despite recent advances in the female reproductive field, the existing challenges are still enormous such as personalization of disease, difficulty in diagnosing early cancers, antibiotic resistance in infectious diseases, etc. To confront such challenges, nanoparticle-based imaging tools and phototherapies that offer minimally invasive detection and treatment of reproductive tract-associated pathologies are indispensable and innovative. Of late, several clinical trials have also been conducted using nanoparticles for the early detection of female reproductive tract infections and cancers, targeted drug delivery, and cellular therapeutics. However, these nanoparticle trials are still nascent due to the body's delicate and complex female reproductive system. The present review comprehensively focuses on emerging nanoparticle-based imaging and phototherapies applications, which hold enormous promise for improved early diagnosis and effective treatments of various female reproductive organ diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study summarized the available evidence about the use of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for the management of oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). METHODS An overview of systematic reviews was undertaken based on the 2020 PRISMA statement. Electronic searches were performed in five databases. Studies published up to November 2022 were included. Risk of bias was assessed with the AMSTAR 2 tool. RESULTS A total of 30 studies enrolling 9,245 individuals with OPMD (n=7,487) or OSCC (n=1,758) met the selection criteria. All studies examined the efficacy and/or safety of PDT. OPMD were investigated individually in 82.8% of the studies, the most common being oral lichen planus and actinic cheilitis. OSCC was addressed separately in 10.3% of the studies, while only 6.9% evaluated both OPMD and OSCC. Fourteen different types of photosensitizers were described. PDT was used according to the following setting parameters: 417-670 nm, 10-500 mW/cm2, 1.5-200 J/cm2, and 0.5-143 minutes. Regarding OPMD, leukoerythroplakia showed the best response rates, while oral lichen planus presented a partial or no response in nearly 75% of documented cases. A complete response was observed in 85.9% of OSCC cases, while 14.1% had no resolution. CONCLUSION Overall, the response to PDT depended on the type of OPMD/OSCC and the parameters used. Although PDT is an emerging candidate for the treatment of OPMD and OSCC, there is heterogeneity of the methodologies used and the clinical data obtained, particularly regarding the follow-up period.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) in the treatment of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix (HSIL). METHODS This retrospective study included 22 female patients with histologically confirmed HSIL and high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infections. Patients were treated with ALA-PDT once a week for a total of 6 times. All patients had a follow-up period of 3 months and 6 months. The assessment of effectiveness of ALA-PDT was performed by ThinPrep cytology test (TCT), HPV DNA assay, HPV E6/E7 mRNA examination, colposcopy, biopsy, and immunohistochemistry detection. RESULTS Three months after 5-ALA PDT, the histologic disappearance rate was 81.82% (18/22), while the HPV clearance rate was 54.55% (12/22). At the 6 months checkpoint, the HSIL disappearance rate was 90.91% (20/22) and the HPV clearance rate was 86.36% (19/22). Before PDT, 68.18% of patients (15/22) were confirmed with TCT abnormalities, while only one patient (1/22, 4.55%) was abnormal in the TCT test at 6 months checkpoint. All participants were found HPV E6/E7 mRNA positive initially, while the HPV E6/E7 mRNA negative rate was 90.91% (20/22) at 6 months checkpoint. Additionally, we found a significant difference of the expression of CD4+ & CD8+ T cells and HPV E6 & E7 proteins before ALA-PDT and at 3 months follow-up (P < 0.01). No severe side effects were seen. CONCLUSIONS Topical 5-ALA PDT is an effective treatment for cervical HSIL with HR-HPV infection.

Abstract
Hypoxic environment is a bottleneck of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in tumor treatment, as oxygen is the critical substrate for photosensitivity reaction. Herein, a sustained oxygen supply system based on cerium nanoparticles and hydrogel (GHCAC) was explored for enhanced synergistic PDT and gas therapy. Ceria nanoparticles were prepared as a drug carrier by self-assembly mediated by hyaluronic acid (HA), a targeting for CD44 on cervical cancer cells, followed by photosensitizer and l-arginine (l-Arg) loading. Then, the GHCAC system was developed by incorporating a prepared nanocarrier (HCePA) and O2-evolving agent calcium peroxide (CaO2) into the hydrogel (Gel) developed by a poloxamer. Gel in the system could moderately infiltrate H2O to react with CaO2 and generate sustained oxygen using the catalase-like activity of HCePA. The system could efficiently alleviate hypoxia in tumor environments for up to 7 days, meeting the "once injection, repeat irradiation" strategy and enhanced PDT efficacy. Besides, the generated singlet oxygen (1O2) in the PDT process could also oxidize l-Arg into high concentrations of nitric oxide for synergistic gas therapy. The developed oxygen supplied and drug delivery Gel system is a new strategy for synergistic PDT/gas therapy to overcome cervical cancer.

Abstract
Cervical dysplasia is a common precancerous lesion affecting 1% to 2% of women worldwide. Significant progress in the diagnosis and treatment of cervical dysplasia have been made in the last decade. We performed a systematic literature search of the databases PubMed and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials to identify controlled clinical trials reporting on the efficacy and safety of diagnostic and therapeutic interventions for cervical dysplasia. Data were analyzed according to PRISMA guidelines. In total, 33 studies reporting on 5935 women were identified. We recommend intravenous or intracervical lidocaine for pain reduction during colposcopically-directed cervical biopsies but not topical lidocaine, music, or video colposcopy. Monsel’s solution might be used to control bleeding after cervical biopsies. The acetic acid test should be scored 1 min after the application of acetic acid and should be followed by Lugol’s iodine test for an optimal yield of LSIL/HSIL. LEEP/LLETZ remains the standard and techniques such as SWETZ, C-LETZ, and TCBEE are not superior. LEEP/LLETZ should be performed under local anesthesia and with direct colposcopic vision. Cryotherapy and thermoablation might be used in women with LSIL, especially in women with HIV infection, but LEEP/LLETZ remains the standard for HSIL. Topical imiquimod remains an experimental procedure. In conclusion, significant progress has been made in the last decade regarding both diagnostic interventions as well as therapeutic interventions for women with cervical dysplasia. Based on >30 controlled clinical trials, we were able to formulate specific and evidence-based recommendations.
