Leep Procedure - for abnormal pap (cervical dysplasia) In minutes, we can remove pre cancerous lesions from your cervix. The LEEP procedure replaces the traditional cone biopsy, shaving the abnormal tissues away. Over 90% of patients are cured in a single treatment.

This does not mean you have cancer, but treatment of the abnormal area is important to prevent the cells from progressing into invasive cervical cancer.
Squamous intraepithelial lesion is the pathology term used to refer to cervical dysplasia observed in smears of cells taken from the cervix. Squamous refers to the type of cells on the cervix; intraepithelial refers to the fact that these cells are present in the lining tissue of the cervix. When cervical dysplasia is seen in a biopsy of tissue rather than a cell smear, it is referred to as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
