Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this study is to compare the rate of recurrence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia among HIV-positive women receiving cryotherapy versus LEEP over 2 years of follow-up and to compare the shedding of HIV-1 from the cervix between HIV-positive women receiving cryotherapy versus LEEP over 3 weeks of follow-up.
