[The value of cytological screening for neoplasms in young women]

The question of the incidence of positive or suspect cervical cytology-tests in young women of 30 years or less of age out of a total of 54,604 cervical cytology-tests is discussed. The results of clinical, cytological, and histological follow-up are reported. According to our experiences that 158 smears of group Pap. III and 99 smears of group of Pap IV and V were found in young women of 30 years or less of age this group of patients should not be excluded from consecutive cervical cytology-tests or national health-screening programs.
