Rate per 100,000 women mortality of cervical cancer
Rates per 100,000 women per year. Standardised rates have been estimated using the direct method and the World population as the reference.
Data sources:IARC, Globocan 2008. Age-specific data from GLOBOCAN 2008 were obtained from IARC, personal communication.
260 thousand deaths, per year.
Rates per 100,000 women per year. Standardised rates have been estimated using the direct method and the World population as the reference.
Data sources:IARC, Globocan 2008. Age-specific data from GLOBOCAN 2008 were obtained from IARC, personal communication.
Most of the cases are detected in the developing countries.

Mortality rate of women aged 25 and over
From 19.57 to 13.75 in 10 years
National policy
Education for the population to get awareness, and self responsibility.
Cytological sample as universal detection method.
Positive HPV sent to a colposcopy center.
Official Mexican Standard (NOM-014) for Prevention, Treatment and Control of Cervical Cancer.
Prevention and early detection actions
PAP screening implemented in all public health care services. 35% detection coverage in 1989,
75% detection coverage in 2010.
13 Cytology laboratories (tests of HPV DNA to high risk women from 35 to 64 years).

Hybrid Capture Test
Started in 2007
Applied in 125 counties with less Human Development Index
2009-2010: 1.9 millions tests in all country to women from 35 –
64 years old.
2011: 2 millions of tests.
Home vaginal self take test: Advantages
More accuracy and sensitivity to identify NIC2+, and cervical injuries.
Quick increase of coverage
Available technology in the poorest areas
Better diagnosis quality that only use of PAP.
VPH Vaccine (Recombinant Human Papillomavirus Quadrivalent Vaccine)
Started in 2008.
Complete schemes of 3 doses of HPV vaccine.
125 regions (municipalities) with the lowest human development index.
400,000 complete schemes of VPH vaccines to girls from 9 – 12 years old in 2008-2010.
20 % coverage in girls 9-12 years old.
Actions for the poorest women in poor communities
“Caravanas de la Salud” Program
Health promotion HPV Vaccination
Cervical Cytology and Acid Acetic direct visualization.
Biomolecular tests: Hybrid Capture, and RPC (Resistive plate chambers), as a cytology complement.
Women in 25 to 64 years with positive results, are referred to a Colposcopy Center, Dysplasia center, or a Oncological Center.
Treatment of Cervical cancer
Universal financial coverage of treatment since 2004 to 2010.
12,251 cases under “Seguro Popular” coverage to women without any health insurance.
Goals and perspective
Incorporate the HPV vaccine to the basic vaccination scheme.
Reach in 5 years, a coverage detection for high risk HPV of 65 % in 35-64 women.
National goal 2012: Reduce mortality to 10.9 deaths per 100,000 women aged 25 and over (27% from 2006 to 2012).
Continue efforts to reach levels of developed countries with death rates per 100,000 women (3 to 5).
Cervical cancer is preventable using the available screening, diagnosis and
treatment.
Health is not everything, but without health, everything is nothing.
