| Summary, etc. | Abstract:<br/><br/>Background: Cervical cancer remain the most common cause of deaths among women in developing countries. It is estimated that over 80% of cervical cancer are detected in a late stage of the disease. Cervical cancer is potentially preventable and effective screening programs can lead to a great reduction of associated morbidity and mortality. Secondary prevention of cervical cancer through screen and treat approach is associated with an overall reduction of cervical cancer related morbidity and mortality. The “screen and treat” approach has been practiced in many centres in Tanzania. However, the outcome of this preventive approach has not been evaluated and published in Mwanza. This study is conducted in our local setting to assess the magnitude of VIA positive and histological pattern among women screened for cervical cancer at selected health facilities in Mwanza Tanzania.<br/><br/>Method: This was a cross-sectional study which involved women aged 20-50 years screened for cervical cancer at Sekou Toure hospital, Makongoro and Igoma health centres, Bulale dispensary, Nyamagana and Misungwi hospital in Mwanza. The magnitude of VIA positive women was determined with study of histological pattern seen in VIA positive lesions. Stastical data analysis was carried out using STATA software.<br/><br/>Results: There were 31 women who were found with lesions on the cervix out of 489 screened women giving the prevalence of 6.3%. These 31 VIA positive women whose biopsies were taken, their histological findings were 39% cervicitis, 29% LGSIL, 13% HGSIL and one sample reported dysplasia 6.5%. In our study most of the lesions were found at 12 o’clock followed by 5 and 6 o’clock respectively.<br/><br/>Conclusion: Strengthening of cervical cancer screening is still in need in our set up and it should be taken as a public health priority for induction, implementation and sustainability of effective cancer screening. However priorities should be given to high risk group like HIV positive women. However from the study it has been shown that most of VIA positive their histological parten shows cervicitis.<br/><br/> |
