Objective: To estimate the incidence of cervical cancer (CCU) in the year 2020 in the gynecology oncology consultation of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Service of the Hospital “Dr. Domingo Luciani”. Method: Retrospective, descriptive study, where the clinical histories of the patients diagnosed with cervical cancer who attended the first oncology gynecology consultation were reviewed, the period from January to December 2020. Results: Sixty patients met the inclusion criteria, the variables studied were age, histological type, stage at the time of diagnosis and indicated treatment;14.52% were diagnosed with cervical cancer; the mean age at the time of diagnosis was 43.15 years; the most common histological group was squamous, (96.67%). Regarding staging, 28 cases (46.67%) were diagnosed in stage IIIB, 14 cases (23.33%) in stage IIB, and only 6.66% were diagnosed in early stages. Treatment indicated radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Conclusion: We show in the present study that cervical cancer represents a significant percentage of gynecological consultations, that unfortunately the diagnosis is made in advanced stages, negatively affecting the prognosis of these patients and that the age at which it predominates is in full productive life of the women. affected women, constituting a real public health problem and chaos for families and society.

Abstract Background Cancer is widely recognized as a global public health problem. Breast, prostate and cervical cancer are among the most frequent types in developing countries. Assessing their incidence and mortality by regions and municipalities is important to guide evidence-based health policy. Our aim was to describe the incidence and mortality trends for breast, cervical and prostate cancer across regions and municipalities in Colombia during 2018. Methods We performed a cross-sectional analysis with data from people with breast, prostate or cervical cancer, reported to the National Administrative Cancer Registry during 2018. A descriptive analysis was performed. Age-standardized incidence and mortality rates were estimated at national, regional and municipal levels. Finally, we identify the regions and municipalities with significantly higher or lower incidence and mortality rates compared to national estimations. Results Breast cancer was the most frequent type among all new cases and deaths in Colombia. Breast, prostate and cervical cancer incidence and mortality rates were: 18,69 (CI 95%: 18,15–19,25) and 10,48 (CI 95%: 10,07–10,91); 11,34 (CI 95%: 10,90 − 11,78) and 7,58 (CI 95%: 7,22 − 7,96); 5,93 (CI 95%: 5,62 − 6,25) and 4,31 (CI 95%: 4,05 − 4,58), respectively. Eastern region had both, incidence and mortality rates, significantly lower than national for all types of cancer. By municipalities, there were a heterogeneous pattern. Nonetheless, Agua de Dios (Cundinamarca), had one of the highest incidence rates for all types. Conclusions We observed clear differences in cancer incidence and mortality across regions and municipalities, depending on each type of cancer. Our findings are important to improve screening coverage, early detection and treatment in the country.

Purpose: Cervical cancer remains a real public health problem in Togo. This study was undertaken to sensitize women and to determine the prevalence of precancerous and canrous lesions of the cervix in the Togolese woman. Material and methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study of the results of a consecutive series of Pap smears performed in the Laboratory of Pathological Anatomy and Cytology CHU Tokoin Lome 2011-2013. Results: Epidemiological, 512 FCV were interpretable. The average age of women was 37.6 years, extreme 19 and 87 years. By occupation, we noted a predominance of unemployed women (351cas, 68,6%), followed by women traders (103 cases, 20,1%) . The distribution by marital status was possible to observe a predominance of married women (234 cases, 45, 7 %). In terms of reproductive history, we found a mean gravidity and parity respectively 3, 5 and 2. We noted 22 women living with HIV, 77.2% were infected with HIV1. Cytopathological, 512 smears selected, we observed 44 abnormal smears (8,6%). It was indeterminate lesions ASCUS / ASCUS (8 cases), endocervical hyperplasia (3 cases), low-grade lesions (17 cases), high-grade lesions (10 cases) and invasive carcinoma (6 cases). Conclusion: The detection rate of cervical cancer is low among the Togolese woman. The health professionals should take the habit of asking the FCV any woman having a consultation.

Cervical cancer develops through persistent infection with high-risk human papilloma virus (hrHPV) and is a leading cause of death among women worldwide and in the United States. Periodic surveillance through hrHPV and Pap smear-based testing has remarkably reduced cervical cancer incidence worldwide and in the USA. However, considerable discordance in the occurrence and outcome of cervical cancer in various populations exists. Lack of adequate health insurance appears to act as a major socioeconomic burden for obtaining cervical cancer preventive screening in a timely manner, which results in disparate cervical cancer incidence. On the other hand, cervical cancer is aggressive and often detected in advanced stages, including African American and Hispanic/Latina women. In this context, our knowledge of the underlying molecular mechanism and genetic basis behind the disparate cervical cancer outcome is limited. In this review, we shed light on our current understanding and knowledge of racially disparate outcomes in cervical cancer.

Background: Vitamin D and its receptor (VDR) play a crucial role in the development of gynecological cancers. This study aims to evaluate the VDR expression and blood vitamin D 1.25 (OH)2 levels in cervical cancer patients and healthy women.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. In vitro quantitative examination (ELISA) was used for the measurement of vitamin D 1.25 (OH)2 and Sandwich-ELISA was applied for quantitative determination in vitro concentration of Human VDR in serum.Results: The number of research subjects consisting of 20 cervical cancer patients based on clinical and histopathological results and 20 women without cervical cancer based on clinical and pap smear results. The mean vitamin D 1.25 (OH)2 levels in the cervical cancer group of 209.23 ± 71.476 pg/mL were significantly lower than in the group of normal women of 339.79 ± 139.003 pg/mL (P=.001). The mean VDR expression in the cervical cancer group of 5.38 ± 5.478 ng/mL was significantly higher than the group of normal women of 1.89 ± 1.657 ng/mL (P=.018). The best cut-off value for vitamin D levels is 239.25 pg/mL (sensitivity 70% and specificity 75%). The cut-off value for VDR expression is 2.23 ng/mL (sensitivity 60% and specificity 75%). Low vitamin D levels increase the risk of cervical cancer incidence by 2.7 times greater, and an increase in VDR expression increases the risk of cervical cancer incidence 2 times greater.Conclusions: The study results indicated a higher expression of VDR and lower levels of vitamin D 1.25 (OH)2 in cervical cancer compared to normal women. Low levels of vitamin D increase the risk of cervical cancer incidence by 2.7 times greater, and higher VDR expression increases the risk of cervical cancer incidence 2 times greater.
