swabs showing the presence of endocervical and endometrial elements


Explanation:
The 1st reference site contains: "...Swabs from the posterior..."

The 2nd one: "...The value of a uterine swab alone..."

Swabs are the the little cotton covered sticks used to obtain samples. To swab is also the action of using the swab...

"Frotis" is commonly used by spanish speaking medical people to refer to the act of "frotar" (rub) to obtain a specimen using the swab...

Smear is what you do after taking a sample with a swab: you smear the sample on the glass slide before you place it under the microscope.

Regards...
