Uterine cervical neoplasms mass screening at the University Hospital Centre of Libreville, Gabon: Associated factors with precancerous and cancerous lesions.

The objectives of this study were to identify the associated factors with cancerous and precancerous lesions of cervix. In Africa, the incidence of uterine cervical neoplasms varies from one region to another, where most women with uterine cervical neoplasms are seen at an advanced stage. For this r...
