“…In 2012, the FDA determined that the plasma energy system was substantially equivalent to the CO 2 laser system and could thus be used for similar purposes [21]. APC has been applied for treating gastric lowgrade intraepithelial neoplasia, gallbladder cancer, colon polyps, Barrett's esophagus, and vulval intraepithelial neoplasia [22][23][24][25][26].…”

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of argon plasma coagulation (APC) therapy and interferon therapy in patients with grade I and II vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VaIN).Methods A total of 112 patients with VaIN were diagnosed via colposcopy-induced biopsy and classified into the APC group (n = 77) and interferon group (n = 35). Clinical data including age, grade, symptoms, historical or concomitant neoplasia of the lower genital tract, indications for hysterectomy, pregnancy history, cytology, human papillomavirus (HPV) subtype, treatment modalities, and clinical outcomes were analyzed retrospectively. Complications and clinical outcomes were assessed at 6- and 12-month follow-ups.Results There was no significant difference in the HPV clearance rate between the APC (53.42%) and interferon (33.33%) groups at 6-month after treatment. However, the 12-month follow-up of the APC group showed a significantly higher HPV clearance rate as compared to the interferon group (87.67% vs. 51.52%, P < 0.05). The APC group exhibited a significantly higher cure rate (79.22% vs. 40.0%) and lower persistence rate ( 12.99% vs. 37.14%) than the interferon group (P < 0.05). Adverse reaction analysis revealed that the primary reaction in the APC group was vaginal drainage, in contrast to the increased vaginal discharge in the interferon group; though the difference was significant (68.83% vs. 28.57%, P < 0.05), no serious complications were observed.Conclusions Treatment with APC is a safe and more effective procedure against VaIN I and II, compared to interferon. APC may serve as a viable alternative to other physiotherapies.
