Answers
1. D Bacterial Vaginosis• Clue cells with cocci on them
2. D LSIL• Koilocytes!
3. C Endocervical cells• Honeycomb, regular, not dysplastic
4. E HSIL• High NC ratio, irregular nuclei
5. B Lactobacillus• Rods on the cells
6. D LSIL• Koilocytes again!
7. A Squamous Metaplasia• Can look like HSIL, but nuclei not so big and still regular in contour.
8. A Reactive• See the trichomonas hiding in there……
9. E. HSIL• High NC ratio, irregular nuclei
10. E Tubal metaplasia• Ciliated cells in a pap smear can be metaplastic ciliated metaplasia.
