Abstract

Introduction: In developing countries, cervical cancer is still the most frequent gynaecological cancer among women.

Objective: The goal of this study was to look at the clinical presentation and histological pattern of carcinoma cervix over a three-year period.

Design: This was a retrospective analysis.

Results:  The majority of the patients were between the ages of 40 and 50.The majority of the patients were in stage III of the disease. The most common histological pattern was squamous cell carcinoma. The treatment modality was radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy.

Conclusion: The result clearly demonstrates the inadequacy of the screening programme for detecting preinvasive stages of cervix carcinoma. Early diagnosis of the preinvasive stage by screening and appropriate treatment should be instituted at the preinvasive stage.
