.he Prevical curette is a new instrument for an early diagnosis of carcinoma of the endometrium. The good acceptance of this method, which can be practised on an outpatient basis without anaesthesia, has been described by other groups of researchers. To check its reliability, we analysed endometrium specimens of 105 patients both cytologically and histologically. The collection of the material by the cytological method was successful in 99% of the cases, whereas clinical interpretation was possible in 94%. With nine carcinomas of the endometrium in the examined women, no false negative result was obtained. Hence, the use of this curette seems to be useful in patients with special risk factors and patients who cannot be anaesthetised. It should, always be kept in mind that the Prevical curette is conceived as a screening method which cannot replace histological clarification.
Prevical刮匙是一种用于早期诊断子宫内膜癌的新器械。其他研究小组已描述了这种无需麻醉即可在门诊进行的方法得到了良好的认可。为检验其可靠性，我们对105例患者的子宫内膜标本进行了细胞学和组织学分析。通过细胞学方法采集材料在99%的病例中成功，而临床诊断在94%的病例中可行。在所检查的女性中有9例子宫内膜癌，未获得假阴性结果。因此，对于有特殊危险因素的患者以及不能进行麻醉的患者，使用这种刮匙似乎是有用的。应始终牢记，Prevical刮匙被视为一种筛查方法，不能替代组织学诊断。
