[Analysis of seven year prophylactic examinations of uterine cervix carcinoma in women living in the town of Kielce].
The authors are presenting an analysis of the prophylactic examinations carried out within the period of seven years among women under the care of the Municipal Health Care Center in Kielce. They are also trying to evaluate the influence such examinations have in forming up the detectability of preneoplastic states and cancer of the uterine cervix. The studies were carried out from 1982-1988. A rule was adopted to repeat the examinations every two years. Owing to organizing difficulties, the first stage of the examinations took three years. The basis of the prophylactic examinations was cytologic examination. The detectability of intraepithelial neoplasm of the uterine cervix (CIN) in the three stages was 0.26%, 0.16%, and 0.07%. It was observed therefore, the gradual drop in the number of the detectable CIN among the population in the duration of the studies. A "shift" of detectable neoplasma changes in the uterine cervix in the direction of a higher percentage of preinvasive cancers and with an early invasion was observed. This shift, beside the stable decrement of the absolute number of detectable cancers is a favourable phenomenon and testifies the great usefulness and the effectiveness of the studies.
