Résumé
Background
Data on cervical cytological abnormalities in women with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are inconsistent. We compared their prevalence in women with and without IBD.
Methods
In this retrospective single-centre analysis of electronic medical records (2022–2024), women with Crohn’s disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) were compared with 141 women treated at a gynaecology outpatient clinic. Cytology was classified exclusively using the Bethesda System (abnormal = ASC-US or worse; “Pap II” inflammation = normal).
