Abnormal Pap Test - Cause. Most abnormal Pap tests are caused by HPV infections. Other types of infection-such as those caused by bacteria, yeast, or protozoa (Trichomonas)-sometimes lead to minor changes on a Pap test called atypical squamous cells.
Atypical glandular cells is the third possible abnormal Pap smear result that is usually reported. Glandular cells are found in the opening of the cervix and within the uterus. A finding of atypical glandular cells requires further testing since it does not have a clear connection to the development of cervical cancer.
