Abstract: | Cervical cancer is the forth most common cancer among women globally. The burden faced by low- and middle- income countries is significantly greater than high-income countries. The disparity is a direct result of the differences in resources. Developed nations have organized vaccination and screening programs that have decreased their cervical cancer incidence. More readily available personnel and technology exists to implement appropriate treatment modalities. However, for many underdeveloped nations, the scarcity of resources and infrastructure make such preventative and treatment programs limited or even nonexistent. |
