  ABSTRACT: LEEP conization with vaporization was performed for 86 CIN2+ cases. Our data suggest that combining LEEP conization and vaporization results in a higher estimated cumulative HPV clearance rate than LEEP alone. The clearance rate tended to be better in younger patients. Vaporization could provide a promising therapeutic option for VaIN2 associated with high-risk HPV infection. Treatment of CIN2+ and VaIN2 using ball electrode vaporization and LEEP conization appears feasible and effective, even in settings lacking specialized surgical devices. After conservative treatment of CINs or VaIN, HR-HPV persists in some cases even in the NILM state without dysplasia, and long-term follow-up is needed.
