It means that the sample was not a clean catch. You try to obtain a sample that is midstream in a woman because the bacteria on the outside of the uretha/vagina could falsely indicate that your urine is infected (usually it is sterile or near sterile if healthy). So if you see a bunch of epithelial cells in the sample, it means that the sample was contaminated with material from somewhere other than just what's in the urine.

It means that the sample was contaminated. For a clean catch specimen: first you cleanse yourself, then you urinate a little in the toilet, stop the flow then urinate in the cup.
