“…In our study, we found that non-hemorrhagic smears were predominant with 64.20 % followed by hemorrhagic smears with a rate of 35.8%. Our results are different from those reported by Bertrand K. in Burkina Faso [6] reported in his study that only 16.95% were hemorrhagic. Several reasons can explain the presence of blood in the Pap smear; such as an erosion during the exam, a current infection, a malignancy, or the patient was on her menstrual cycle.…”

“…It is the fourth leading cause of e death among women worldwide, with developing countries paying a heavy toll [6,7]. In Africa, this cancer ranks second among gynecologic cancers with a mean incidence of approximately 33.7 cases / 100 000 [6]. In Niger, to our knowledge, no study…”

“…There is no doubt of the effectiveness of cervical cancer screening, and it is because screening helps to detect and treat precancerous conditions [4,5]. Unfortunately, cervical cancer is a public health issue due to its increase on a global scale with an incidence of 570 000 new cases/ year [6]. It is the fourth leading cause of e death among women worldwide, with developing countries paying a heavy toll [6,7].…”

Introduction:A Cervical Pap Smear (CPS) is a test that allows early detection of cell lesions. Cervical cancer, the second leading cause of death in women in Africa, manifests itself in precancerous lesions that can be identified by cytology. Methodology: This was a prospective and retrospective study performed over period of 23 years. We examined 1,000 consecutive CPS samples. Results: Over 7658 lab exams done at the laboratory, the frequency CPS was 13, 05%. In 43.60% of cases, the reason for carrying out the examination was systematic screening. The mean age of the patients was 40.93 years. Patients with an age between 37 and 46 years were predominant (34.3%). This same age group showed more cellular abnormalities with Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance (ASCUS) in first position, followed by the low-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Infection was found in the 37 and 46 age group and inflammation was present in 29.69% of cases. The correlation study of age and infection showed a significant link between these two variables (p-value = 0.00000383). Bacterial cervicitis was the cause of infection in 7.8%, followed by HPV infection 7.2%. Suspicious epithelial abnormalities were present in 20.87 %. High-grade intraepithelial lesions were represented in 1.75% of cases. The CPS with hemorrhagic characteristics represented 35.80 %. At the end of all this we can say that the need to implement policies of systematic surveillance of genital diseases through routine screening at its initial stage is imperative.
