Negative for Intraepithelial Lesion or Malignancy  

Normal Pap Smear

This is the normal result.

Since the purpose of the Pap smear is to screen for the presence of malignancy or pre-malignant conditions, the absence of these is considered normal.

There may be some other abnormalities present on the Pap smear that do not effect it being "negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy."
