Sažetak
Infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) is the first necessary cause for cervical cancer development. Although cervical cancer can be prevented and treated if detected early enough, it is the second biggest cause of female cancer mortality worldwide. Early detection of precursor cervical lesions by screening methods based on cytological and/or HPV testing should be encouraged because it offers protection against invasive cervical cancer. This review discusses the essential issues concerning cervical cancer and provides future prospectives.
