abstract: The relationship between cervical infection, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), cervical cancer risk factors and pregnancy was studied in a group of 460 pregnant women at the time of their first prenatal examination, each woman was examined by Papanicolaou smear collected with cervexbrush. A total of 301 women (65.4%) with diagnosis of cervical infection was recorded, 4 cases of human papilomavirus infection and two women with CIN I and CIN II. 40 patients were identified with significant risk factors for the development of CIN. CIN prevalence knowledge and pregnancy cervical infection should be considered to prevent the neonates, male partner and women potential risk for cervix invasive carcinoma.
