Patient's question:
Cervical polyp, erosion degree III. Ultrasound examination shows Nabothian cysts 0.50.4cm. Gynecological examination reveals Nabothian cysts.Doctor's answer:
Cervical nabothian cysts are a manifestation of chronic cervical inflammation. Chronic cervical inflammation is closely related to cervical cancer. Under the long-term influence of inflammation, a very small number of patients with chronic cervical inflammation may exhibit malignant transformation. Therefore, cervical nabothian cysts must not be taken lightly. It is mainly necessary to undergo a cervical smear test every year to rule out cervical cancer and precancerous conditions.1. For scattered and relatively small cervical nabothian cysts, treatment is generally not required, as annual careful examinations are sufficient.
2. For dense and small cervical nabothian cysts or larger ones, phototherapy, laser, microwave, or cryotherapy may be considered for physical treatment.
3. For larger cervical nabothian cysts that are weakly attached to the surface of the cervix, electrocautery excision may be considered.
