Abnormal cytology	Immunodeficiency (<200 cels. CD4/mm3)		Immunosufficiency (>200 cels. CD4/mm3)		Total
	N	%	N	%	N	%
ASC-US	2	33	4	67	6	100
LSIL	2	25	6	75	8	100

Unknown: results of cytology unknown.

ASC-US: atypical squamous cells of unknown significance.

ASC-H: atypical squamous cells, cannot exclude a high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL).

LSIL: low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, according to the Bethesda system.
