Diagnosis of carcinoma cervix uteri.
Carcinoma cervix should ideally be diagnosed in the pre-invasive or micro-invasive stage, or even earlier in the stage of cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN) by mass screening. As this has not been possible in our country awareness should be created amongst general population and practitioners about the urgent necessity of reporting to a proper clinic as soon as possible after appearance of early symptoms. Downstaging of the cancer should also be performed utilising nurses and paramedical health workers. Early diagnosis would give the best possible results of treatment.
