Hi,

Low-grade squamous intra-epithelial lesion (LSIL) is a common abnormal result on a Pap test. It means that your cervical cells show mild abnormalities. A LSIL, or abnormal Pap result, does not necessarily mean that you have cancer. HPV or Human Papilloma infection can cause these abnormality. LSIL may clear on its own or take even 10 years to convert into carcinoma. Routine Pap smear must be done to rule out any malignant transformation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
