A cervical biopsy is a diagnostic procedure in which a small sample of tissue is taken from the cervix, the lower part of the uterus. The purpose of a cervical biopsy is to identify abnormal or precancerous changes in the cells of the cervix. It is often used to diagnose and monitor the progression of cervical cancer. Cervical biopsies are typically performed in a doctor's office, clinic, or hospital. The sample is collected using a thin, hollow needle, or a special instrument called a punch biopsy. The sample is then sent to a lab for analysis. The results of a cervical biopsy can often confirm or rule out the presence of cancer or precancerous cells. It can also be used to monitor changes in the cells of the cervix over time. This can help doctors determine the best course of treatment for cervical cancer or other conditions. Cervical biopsies are usually safe and well tolerated. However, there is typically a small risk of bleeding or infection associated with the procedure. The risk of complications increases when the biopsy is done during pregnancy. Before the procedure, it is important to discuss any potential risks with a doctor.
