Comparison of lesion size and duration between patients with different diagnostic results
| Smear positive/histopathology positive (N = 58) | Smear positive/histopathology negative (N = 20) | Smear negative/histopathology positive (N = 5) | P value* | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mean lesion size in square millimeter (SD) | 177.3 (180.1) | 127.0 (195.3) | 234.8 (276.3) | 0.067 |
| Mean lesion duration in months (SD) | 6.9 (9.1) | 4.7 (3.2) | 10.8 (7.8) | 0.068 |
SD = standard deviation.
