Large amounts of metallic silver pigment were found in 10 cervical biopsy specimens taken for the histological grading of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). The assessment of CIN was made much harder because the pigment obscured the morphological detail of the epithelial cells, and in some it was very difficult to determine whether koilocytosis or CIN I was present. The silver can easily be removed by a simple chemical method.
在10份为宫颈上皮内瘤变(CIN)组织学分级而采集的宫颈活检标本中发现了大量金属银色素。由于这种色素掩盖了上皮细胞的形态细节,使得CIN的评估变得困难得多,在一些标本中,很难确定是否存在挖空细胞或CIN I。通过一种简单的化学方法可以轻松去除银。
