Transformation Zone Assessment Using Visual Inspection With Acetic Acid Before and After Thermal Ablation: Implications for Follow-Up

PURPOSEThermal ablation (TA) has become the conventional method for treatment of precancerous cervical lesions in low-resource settings. After TA, both the squamocolumnar junction (SCJ) and the transformation zone (TZ) may be subject to change. Our aim was to evaluate SCJ and TZ variability after TA...
