RESUMEN
A voluntary screening of uterus cervix cancer took place in Kossodo health district from February 1st 2001 to April 30th 2002. It involved the age-group women of 25 to 59 years. This study included 239 women given a participation rate of 6.8%. We had sampled young women in three categories with average age of 38 years: a) doing a remunerated job (64.9%); b) mostly educated (85.3%); and c) married (86.2%). The visual inspection was the method used after the application of 4% acetic acid followed by that of lugol. In all 74 biopsies have been undertaken. Furthermore, we have noticed a 4.2% prevalence of pre-cancerous injuries. The cancerous lesions represented 2.5% of the sampling and the inflammatory lesions 13.4%. VPH infection was found on 2.5% samples and condylomatous injuries in 5% cases. This experience would deserve to be carried out always and a cervix cancer screening campaign held at national level.
