Colposcopy is used to identify or rule out the existence of any precancerous conditions in the cervical tissue. If a Pap test shows abnormal cell growth, colposcopy is usually the first follow-up test performed.
It is the most commonly performed cosmetic procedure in the United States.
In 2004, a study showed that a new optical detection system used with colposcopy greatly improved visual detection of precancerous changes in the cervix during the procedure.
This procedure is done when a Pap smear reveals abnormal results. With an endoscope placed through the vagina and into the cervix, a physician can determine exactly where lesions of the cervix are.
The most common procedure used to correct protruding ears is otoplasty, also known as ear pinning. This surgical procedure reshapes the cartilage in the ear to reposition the ears closer to the head, creating a more balanced and natural appearance. It is typically done on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia.
The procedure is most commonly performed for bone tumors and bone sarcomas,
