Abstract

This article aims to evaluate the clinical aspects of the diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer carried out in the last five years. Integrative review in the VHL, LILACS, SciELO, PubMed database of works published between 2020 and 2024, combining the descriptors "cervical cancer", "diagnosis" and "treatment" with the Boolean descriptor "AND". The estimated incidence of cervical cancer in Brazil in 2023 was 16,340 cases, and there are large regional differences in the incidence of the disease. The most important risk factor for the development of this cancer is the presence of the HPV virus with its oncogenic subtypes, in addition to other factors. It is concluded that there are several ways to screen for cervical cancer, but the gold standard for diagnosing cervical cancer is histology, which can be performed through a direct biopsy of the lesion or, in cases of endocervical lesion, through cervical conization or curettage of the endocervical canal.
