Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The abnormal pap smear with more of glandular pattern on the outer side can be due to a mild hyperplasia or a malignant change. The biopsy of the cervix is the best way to differentiate these two.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
