title: Routine gynaecological clinic in northern Ghana.
abstract: A routine gynaecological screening clinic was conducted in a town in northern Ghana, West Africa. The presence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and other gynaecological disorders were documented. Results show that it is possible to detect pre-malignant lesions, and to provide timely therapy, even in the remote regions of Ghana. More health care professionals in remote areas of the Third World are needed in order to provide such care in the future.
