[The problem of early detection cervical cancer in republic of Kazakhstan]
Abstract:
Cervical cancer (CC) is the 2nd malignant tumor in Republic of Kazakhstan (RK). The quantity of late stage CC diagnoses remains high. Annual reports (2011-2012) of 19 cytology laboratories were analyzed. Study of the incidences and detection of early forms of cervical cancer screening was conducted. The investigation showed incomplete screening coverage of the female population in Kazakhstan, and a shortage of specialists (Cytopathologists, cytotechnicians). The peculiarities of CC during formal and informal screening were detected. Measures to increase female screening coverage are proposed. Among them creation of a reference laboratory at the national level, adoption of the training methods of the International Academy of Cytology (IAC), periodic testing of cytopathologists, training by specialists from Kazakhstan and experts from IAC.
