[Pap-smear test today].
Remembering the publication of Papanicolau and Traut's monograph in 1943, the authors have realized the use and the spead of the Pap-Smear until the present. They have analyzed the different risks of cervical carcinoma. They think that to obtain a further reduction of the morbidity and the death-rate of such a neoplasia, it is necessary to do a pap-smear examination once a year for women with HPV infection or other risk factors. It is possible in this way, to improve results till the 90%.
