Clinical effects of LEEP and RFEK on cervical erosion

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of LEEP for cervical erosion by comparing the clinical curative effects of loop electrosurgical excision procedure(LEEP) and radio frequency electronic knife(RFEK) and to seek for a better way to curing cervical erosion.Methods 200 cases of cervical erosion had visited our hospital were selected for subject which fell into three types(simplex type,granular type and papillar type) according to the degree of cervical erosion.The patients were randomly divided into two groups,LEEP group and RFEK group(100 cases for each group).The curative effect and adverse reaction of the two groups were observed and compared.Results Total effective rates of LEEP and RFEK groups were 100% and 98% respectively and one-time cure rates were 98% and 92% respectively.No significant differences were found in curative effects between simplex type and granular type,while there was significant difference(P0.05)in the curative effects between LEEP(100%) and RFEK(83.3%) for papillar type.The adverse reactions of the two groups were much the same,however,RFEK group was apparently better than LEEP group in surgery time and intra-operative blood volume.Conclusion LEEP and RFEK are both effective methods to cervical erosion,the clinical curative effect on simplex type and granular type are pretty good,while LEEP is better for papillar type,LEEP can be looked as a supplementary therapy method of RFEP.
