What are the pathological manifestations of female cervical erosion?

Cervical erosion is a relatively common gynecological disease nowadays. For women, if its treatment is neglected, it will have a very great impact and threat to their reproductive health and fertility. Therefore, female friends must not ignore the treatment of cervical erosion. Now we have a specific understanding of the pathological manifestations of cervical erosion. We hope that female friends can learn more about this disease and remind themselves to take precautions.

Pathological manifestations of cervical erosion

1. True erosion: Because the surface of the cervix is ​​often covered with a lot of mucus or purulent secretions, these secretions have long-term irritation and soaking of the squamous epithelium around the external os of the cervix. Coupled with the inflammatory infiltration of the deep tissues of the cervix, the squamous epithelium covering the surface of the cervix loses its vitality and falls off, forming ulcers. This is true erosion.

2. Pseudo-erosion: The pathological concept of erosion refers to "the shedding of the surface epithelium", and the common cervical erosion in clinical work is mostly the red area around the external cervical opening. During colposcopy, after applying 3% acetic acid on the surface of the red area, it can be seen that the red area is partially changed into a "grape bunch", which is caused by columnar epithelial edema. If a biopsy is performed on this area, columnar epithelium can be seen on the surface under a microscope. Therefore, if the pathological definition of erosion is strictly followed, this does not belong to erosion, so some people suggest calling it pseudo-erosion, which is the classification of cervical erosion.

I hope that after reading the above introduction, female friends will have a more comprehensive understanding of cervical erosion. When this disease occurs, it must not be ignored, and the treatment cannot be blind, and medication cannot be used indiscriminately. Because for women, cervical health issues are very critical. If you blindly use medication for treatment, it may cause greater harm.
