Thus, the most accurate test to distinguish an LSIL from an HSIL was the association of a suspect DNA profile and the presence of MIB-1- or ICBP90-positive cells in the upper two thirds of the epithelium.
In MIB1 stained smears, normal cells and koilocytes showed inconspicuous immunoreactivity, whereas strongly immunoreactive nuclei were found in cancer cells and HSIL (p<0.0001).
