The DES Screening Center of Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk counties has screened approximately 2000 diethylstilbestrol (DES)-exposed women since its inception in 1979. Four women, who at their initial visit were noted to have only nonmalignant DES-related changes, subsequently developed clear-cell adenocarcinoma while under observation, between 18-81 months after their first colposcopy. The age at diagnosis ranged from 16-31. Three patients had been receiving close follow-up; one had not. These cases emphasize the need for frequent follow-up for these patients using careful inspection and palpation, vaginal and cervical cytology, colposcopy, and colposcopically directed biopsy of suspicious areas.
