Therapeutic effects of focused ultrasound in 4014 patients with symptomatic cervical ectopy

This study aimed to explore the therapeutic effect of focused ultrasound (FU) therapy in patients with symptomatic cervical ectopy. 4677 patients with symptomatic cervical ectopy were enrolled and treated with FU. Three months after treatment, we analyzed the therapeutic effects and the adverse reactions in 4014 cases with complete records. All influential factors were also analyzed with logistic regression analysis. For the treatment of symptomatic cervical ectopy, the effective rate of FU was 99.8%, and the cure rate was 72.52%. Bleeding that either reached or exceeded normal menstrual volume occurred in 12 cases. Logistic regression analysis showed that the degree of illness, vaginal cleanliness, economic level, occupation, age and artificial abortion frequency were all influential factors. Focused ultrasound is a promising new therapeutic option for the treatment of symptomatic cervical ectopy. Additionally, it can be widely used for a variety of patients.
