Sažetak
Introduction: Preinvasive intraepithelial changes of the cervix, squamous and glandular intraepithelial lesions of the cervix are mainly diseases of women of reproductive age, changes invisible to the naked eye. The frequency of occurrence is influenced by the economic development of countries and the dependent mass of cytological screening, sexual habits and the influence of religion on the way of life. In recent years, there has been an increase in the frequency of cervical intraepithelial lesions around the world, and a particular increase has been observed in adolescent girls and women up to the age of 30. (18.8/1000 women) SIL is being recorded more and more often at younger ages, as is HSIL, which used to be appeared at the age of 35-40, and now at the age of 25-29. Discussion: The latest findings according to the Croatian Cancer Registry, which was founded in 1959, show that the recommendations and latest guidelines of the HDGO contributed to the change in the aforementioned statistics, so according to data from 2019, the incidence of cervical cancer in situ is the highest at the age of 30. -34 years, and the ratio between ca in situ and invasive cervical cancer is 3.1:1. In 2012, the incidence of ca in situ cervical was the highest in the age group of 25-29 years, and the ratio between ca in situ and invasive cancer cervix 1:1.Conclusion: The cause of cervical cancer in 99.7% of cases is caused by human papilloma virus infection. Additional factors that encourage the development of cervical cancer in addition to HPV infection are smoking, obesity, long-term use of oral contraception, high parity, and co-infection with the Herpes simplex virus type 2 or HIV. That is why vaccination against HPV is recommended as primary prevention and screening programs as secondary prevention, within which precancerous lesions can be successfully treated.
