A member asked:

Help me interpret vulvar biopsy. focal squamous atypia. ki-67 shows mild increase cell proliferation focal vin can't be excluded. lichen sclerosis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nothing serious yet: This report suggests slightly abnormal changes (atypia & increased cell proliferation) which can be a reaction to irritation but there is no definitive evidence of precancerous change (VIN). In short there is nothing to worry about right now unless you are concerned and you'd like a second opinion
