Abstract
The crude incidence of cervical cancer in the European Union is 13.2/100 000 and the crude mortality rate is 5.9/100 000 women/year. Nearly 500 000 cervical cancer new cases are occurring worldwide each year, responsible for 274 000 deaths. Cervical cancer represents the third most common cause of female mortality. The mortality is 10 times higher in developing countries, where ∼80% of new cases occur, compared with developed countries, since screening and treatment programmes are frequently inaccessible to women in developing countries.
