Hello ChocoKiss,

Your gynecologist should have explained the results of the post-hysterectomy pathology report to you.

Cervicitis is inflammation of the cervix. Your report shows evidence of active (acute) inflammation and long-standing (chronic) inflammation. Cervicitis is most often caused by an infections, usually a sexually transmitted infection. HPV is one sexually transmitted infection that causes cervicitis.

The endometrium is the inner layer of the uterus. It undergoes cyclic regeneration. The secretory phase usually occurs during the second half of the menstrual cycle. Ciliated cells are cells covered in tiny hair-like projections.

Leiomyoma is a benign or non-cancerous tumor derived from smooth muscle, most often of the uterus.

I am able to give you general definitions of these terms and very basic information. You need to schedule an appointment with your gynecologist to discuss the specifics of this report.
