Cervical cancer is the most common cancer in Thai women, with estimated 6,100 new cases diagnosed and 3,100 deaths each year (GLOBALCAN2000). The occurrence of cervical cancer in women in their 20’s is rare, but increases sharply at 35 and 40 years of age and remains high onwards. Most cervical cases in Thailand are diagnosed at a very advanced stage, which leads to little chance of survival.
