La ama-colposcopies Isivivinyo esivumela ukuthi ubone ngeso lengqondo i- wesibeletho futhi esithweni sangasese. Isebenzisa i-colposcope, umshini wokubona okhulisayo ohlobene nomthombo wokukhanya ovumela umbono omuhle womlomo wesibeletho.

I-Colposcopy inconywa lapho udokotela esola ukuba khona kwezilonda ezingavamile emlonyeni wesibeletho, ikakhulukazi kulandela “ Ukuhlolwa kwe-PAP Noma i-smear engavamile.

I-Colposcopy ivumela udokotela ukuthi abone lezi zilonda ngokuningiliziwe, futhi acacise ubunjalo nokubaluleka kwazo.

Ukuhlolwa kuqhathaniswa no-a ukuhlolwa komlomo wesibeletho. Kuthatha cishe imizuzu eyishumi nanhlanu futhi kwenziwa endaweni ye-gynecological, ngemva kokwethulwa kwe-a umhlaseli egcina izindonga zesitho sangasese zihlukene.

Udokotela ube esehlanza umlomo wesibeletho ngekhambi (eliphinde lisebenze ekungcoliseni amaseli angavamile) bese ebeka i-colposcope ngaphambi kwesitho sangasese sowesifazane. Kwesinye isikhathi i-colposcope ixhunywa kusiqaphi sevidiyo.

Kuye ngesimo, udokotela angase asebenzise ukuhlolwa ukuze enze i-smear (= ukuhlolwa kwe-PAP) noma i-biopsy, okuzokwenza kube nokwenzeka ukucwenga ukuxilongwa uma kwenzeka izilonda ezisolisayo.

Kuye ngemiphumela ye-colposcopy ne-cytology (= ukuhlaziywa kwamaseli), udokotela wakho uzophakamisa ukuphathwa okufanele noma ukuqapha okuvamile ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi izilonda aziqhubeki.

Uma kunesidingo, ukusikwa kwamaseli angavamile kungenziwa ngezindlela eziningi:

• Indlela ye-LEEP (i-loop electrosurgical excision technique)
• laser noma cryotherapy ukuhlinzwa

conization (isilonda sisuswa ngokukhipha ucezu lwethishu olumise okwekhoni emlonyeni wesibeletho)
