AB  - OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the loop electrosurgical excisional procedure (LEEP) which 
      is performed to treat high-grade cervical intraepithelial lesions (HGSIL). 
      MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-one cases diagnosed as LGSIL and HGSIL after 
      histopathological examination were included in the study among patients who had 
      cervical colposcopy-directed biopsies after an abnormal cytology report at Ege 
      University School of Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology Department between the 
      years of 2007 and 2009. The patients underwent LEEP or LEEP-cone procedures. 
      RESULTS: The patients with cervical smear results of ten ASCUS, eight LGSIL, and 
      three HGSIL underwent colposcopy-guided punch biopsies. Those with the result of 
      CIN 1 and CIN 2 underwent LEEP or LEEP-cone procedures. Pathologic examination 
      correlated with biopsy results and surgical margins were all negative. All 
      patients were followed-up with cervical cytology. CONCLUSION: LEEP and LEEP-cone 
      procedures are therapeutic procedures in cervical intraepithelial lesions.
