Cervix uteri und Vagina

Pathologie

Zusammenfassung

In allen westlichen Ländern sind Inzidenz und Mortalität des Zervixkarzinoms im Wesentlichen dank regelmäßiger zytologischer Krebsfrüherkennungsuntersuchungen massiv zurückgegangen. Doch selbst in Schweden mit seinem seit 40 Jahren funktionierenden flächendeckenden Früherkennungsprogramm ist es bislang nicht gelungen, das Zervixkarzinom völlig auszurotten. Auch wenn Nichtteilnahme an Früherkennungsuntersuchungen der Hauptgrund sein dürfte, ist ein weiterer möglicher Grund die unbefriedigende Sensitivität von bestenfalls 80% des zytologischen Portioabstrichs. Tatsächlich konnte in mehreren Studien gezeigt werden, dass die Früherkennungsuntersuchungen in bis zu 30% der Frauen mit invasivem Zervixkarzinom unauffällig oder falsch-negativ beurteilt oder unterdiagnostiziert worden waren [17, 136]. Selbst durch wiederholte Untersuchungen in regelmäßigen Zeitabständen lassen sich offenbar nicht sämtliche neoplastische Frühveränderungen erfassen [135]. Das spricht für die Notwendigkeit, die Früherkennungsmaßnahmen zu verbessern.
