RESUMEN
Acute leukemia is rare during pregnancy, affects about 1 in 75,000 pregnancies, of all leukemias diagnosed only 28% are acute lymphoblastic leukemia, this is a risk factor to develop spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome, it's a oncologic complication potentially deadly if the prophylactic treatment its avoided. Cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia associated with pregnancy has been poorly documented in the literature the association of these two entities to pregnancy is the first report published worldwide, so the information is limited.

OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to compare the correlation between the Pap smear and colposcopy findings in postmenopausal Mexican women. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Observational, Retroelective, longitudinal, descriptive study, all menopausal women who consulted for pap smears and colposcopy performed was studied. RESULTS: 119 patients were evaluated. 72 % of pap smears were negative to human papilloma virus, 29 (24%) had a low-grade lesion and 4 (4%) had a high-grade lesions. In the colposcopic study: 31 studies (26%) report low-grade intraepithelial lesion and 2 cases (2%) high-grade lesion. The histopathological biopsy reported one invasive cervical cancer (2.43%) and 20 cases of low-grade lesions (48.7%). cytology had a sensitivity of 85.3% and specificity of 56.09% with a false negative rate of 14.3%, a positive predictive value of 66.03 % and a negative predictive value of 79.31%. Colposcopy: sensitivity= 82.92%, specificity = 56.09% with a false negative rate of 17.07% positive predictive value of 65.38% and a negative predictive value of 76.66%. CONCLUSIONS: The correlation between Pap smear and colposcopy shows that the diagnosis of low and high grade lesions differs only by 2%, therefore indicates adequate sensitivity for diagnosis. In this population of women routine gynecological tests most be performed.
