There were 115 patients who had atypical transformation zone on colposcopic examination which attended this study. This prospective study was held in the author's private colposcopy clinic from July 1, 1989 until December 31, 1991. The colposcopic index was used to describe the colposcopic sign of those lesions and histopathology results were adopted as the gold standard of diagnosis. This colposcopic index had an accuration rate of 95.7% compared to histopathology diagnosis.
