Prevalência da realização do exame citopatológico do colo uterino, no Brasil, nos anos de 2007 e 2013

Abstract: RESUMO:Introdução: O câncer de colo uterino é causado pela infecção persistente por algumas cepas oncogênicas do Papiloma Vírus Humano. Ele acontece devido ao crescimento anormal de células que possuem a capacidade de invadir localmente e metastatizar à distância. O câncer cervical é o terceiro tumor mais frequente entre as mulheres e a quarta maior causa de morte por câncer nesta população.

“…This method makes it possible to identify precursor lesions that can be adequately treated, preventing their progression to cancer 42,43 . In Brazil, comparing the prevalence of the test between 2007 and 2013, with data from the Surveillance of Risk Factors and Protection for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey (VIGITEL), there was an increase in screening coverage, with emphasis on the high rates of approximately 86% in the Midwest Region 44 .…”

“…In our study sample, the coverage of cervical cancer screening was close to the goal proposed by the Brazilian Ministry of Health, which corresponded to 85% in 2020 15 , and it was similar to the national average reported in previous studies, as follows: (i) the 2013 National Health Survey (PNS in Portuguese), in which 79% of the 25,000 interviewed Brazilians and 82% of the surveyed southerners aged 25 to 64 years met the coverage Coverage of cervical cancer screening in Southern Brazil criteria; and (ii) the 2013 Surveillance System for Risk and Protection Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey (VIGITEL), which surveyed 32,000 women aged 25 to 64 years and found coverage rates of 81% nationwide and 88% in the city of Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul 3,16,17 . Of note, the VIGITEL data may have overestimated the national coverage of cervical cancer screening since this survey was performed only in state capitals, which provide better socioeconomic conditions relative to the national context.…”
