Abstract

Cervical cancer (CC) represents the third most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth cause of cancer death in women worldwide [GLOBOCAN: Estimated cancer incidence, mortality and prevalence worldwide in 2012 international agency for research on cancer; 2012. Available at: http://globocan.iarc.fr/Pages/fact_sheets_population.aspx. Accessed 27 Dec 2017, 2012]. In 2012, across the world, 528,000 new cases were diagnosed with 266,000 deaths, with 85% of the cases occurring in developing countries (GLOBOCAN: Estimated cancer incidence, mortality and prevalence worldwide in 2012 international agency for research on cancer; 2012. Available at: http://globocan.iarc.fr/Pages/fact_sheets_population.aspx. Accessed 27 Dec 2017, 2012; Mathers C, Boerma T, Ma Fat D: The global burden of disease: 2004 update. World Health Organization, Geneva, Available at: http://www.who.int/healthinfo/global_burden_disease/GBD_report_2004update_full.pdf. Accessed 27 Dec 2017, 2008; Kamangar F, Dores GM, Anderson WF: J Clin Oncol 24:2137–2150, 2006). In the United States, it is the third most common gynaecologic cancer diagnosed and cause of death among gynaecologic cancers (Siegel R, Naishadham D, Jemal A: CA Cancer J Clin 63:11, 2013). Human papillomavirus (HPV) is central to the development of cervical neoplasia and can be detected in 99.7% of CCs.
