Two hundred seventy-nine patients with cervical condylomas or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) were treated as outpatients with cryotherapy. Every patient followed received a Papanicolaou smear, colposcopic evaluation, cervical biopsy and endocervical curettage four months following treatment. The treatment failure rates for CIN 1/condyloma, CIN 2 and CIN 3 were 2.9%, 5.7% and 4.3%, respectively. The percentage of patients eventually requiring conization was 0.7, 1.6 and 2.7, respectively. No patient who had a negative clinical and histologic examination at four months subsequently had a recurrence. The mean follow-up was 23.1, 26.0 and 35.0 months for CIN 1/condyloma, CIN 2 and CIN 3, respectively. Proper triage is important with CIN 3, and a complete colposcopic examination at the initial follow-up visit is valuable for predicting outcome.
