Carbon dioxide laser treatment of vaginal adenosis in DES-exposed offspring : a prospective study . Seventy-nine patients with history and physical findings characteristic of antenatal DES exposure were randomly divided into two groups . Fourty-four DES-exposed offspring had their vaginal adenosis treated with the carbon dioxide laser ( group I ) , and the remaining 35 DES-exposed offspring ( group II ) did not receive any specific treatment for this condition . Additionally , the 79 DES-exposed offspring were compared to an age-matched control population ( group III ) . Treatment of vaginal adenosis with the carbon dioxide laser did not significantly reduce the incidence of development of new dysplasia in the DES-exposed offspring . This study also showed no statistical difference ( p less than or equal to 0.05 ) in the incidence of dysplasia in DES-exposed offspring as compared to a control population .
