Cervical Cancer HPV induced

by Dr Danijela Antunovič, Assistant Professor of Pathology, UNIC Medical School

BRIEF SUMMARY

The lecture aims to emphasize the significance of cervical cancer in women, particularly focusing on cases caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). It will address the prevalence of HPV in the population and its implications for cytopathologists, histopathologists, and gynaecologists in their daily practice. A key aspect of the discussion will be the integration of cytology and pathology to achieve the most accurate diagnoses and establish a high degree of correlation. This approach is crucial for guiding patients towards effective treatment or appropriate follow-up.
