导论.宫颈癌是影响全世界妇女的最危险疾病之一。它的影响可以通过定期筛查计划来减轻，以早期解决癌症及其前兆。但是，拉丁美洲和加勒比地区的普遍情况使其难以实施成功的早期检测方案。为了评估问题的范围，我们回顾了国际宫颈癌数据和相关文献。研究发现，拉丁美洲的宫颈癌发病率为37/10万，而美国的发病率为7.8，加拿大为8.2。需要资金来提高拉丁美洲对宫颈癌的认识，并确定该地区筛查计划取得成功的其他障碍。(C)2005年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Introduction. Cervical cancer is among the most dangerous diseases affecting women worldwide. Its effects can be mitigated with a program of regular screening to address cancer and its precursors early. But, prevailing conditions in Latin America and the Caribbean make it difficult to implement successful early detection programs.Method. To evaluate the scope of the problem, a review of international cervical cancer data and related literature were surveyed.Results. It was found that cervical cancer affects 37/100,000 women in Latin America, while the incidence is 7.8 in the United States and 8.2 in Canada.Conclusion. Funding is needed to raise awareness of cervical cancer in Latin America, as well as to identify other obstacles to the success of screening programs in the region. (C) 2005 Elsevier Inc.
