Abstract:
Background: Cervical cancer was the second most common cancer among women 15-44 years of age and in 2018 it was the fourth most frequent cancer and cause of cancer death among all women in the world Methods:Women (18-65 yrs) attending Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, SMS Medical College, Jaipur were recruited for study. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria written and informed consent were taken from all study participants Results: On histopathology report we found that 10% had normal inflammation followed by 9.33% had carcinoma in situ, 8% had CIN-2, 6.67% had CIN-1, 5.67% had CIN-3 and Squamous cell carcinoma each. Conclusion: Pap smear and colposcopy both the tests can be used to complement each other in a hospital based screening programme, where facilities for both modalities are available. Hence use of single visit approach in which cytology, colposcopy and guided biopsy all are done in single sitting, and treated accordingly in resource poor countries like ours will enable maximal utilization of scarce medical resources. Keywords: Pap smear, CIN, Cervical cancer
