Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women globally, with over 600,000 new cases and 342,000 deaths in 2020. Nearly all new cases and deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries. In Pakistan, over 5,000 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer each year and around 3,200 die from the disease, making it the third most frequent cancer among women. Persistent infection with high-risk strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV) is the main cause of cervical cancer. Regular Pap smear screening can help detect pre-cancerous lesions early to prevent the development of invasive cervical cancer. Vaccination against HPV also helps prevent infection and subsequent cervical cancer development.
