Area of Science:

  • Gynecologic Oncology
  • Pathology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Cervical cancer remains a significant global health concern.
  • Early detection and risk stratification are crucial for effective management.
  • The role of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in cervical carcinogenesis is well-established.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate oncological risk in Panama.
  • To evaluate the utility of colposcopy, colpocytology, and directed biopsy in risk assessment.
  • To confirm the HPV-Dysplasia-Cancer pathway in the studied population.

Main Methods:

  • Colposcopy examinations were performed.
  • Colpocytology (cervical cytology) was utilized.
  • Directed biopsies were conducted for histological confirmation.

Main Results:

  • The study successfully identified individuals at oncological risk.
  • Diagnostic procedures provided valuable data for risk stratification.
  • A clear association between HPV infection, cervical dysplasia, and cancer was observed.

Conclusions:

  • Colposcopy, colpocytology, and biopsy are effective tools for determining oncological risk.
  • The findings reinforce the established HPV-associated pathway from dysplasia to cancer.
  • These methods aid in early detection and intervention for cervical abnormalities.
