Abstract		The data gathered in 2003, 2004 and 2005 (till 31.7.2005) on the patients with cervical cancer who regularly attended their gynecologist were analysed. The data were gathered simultaneously at three Advisory Boards for Gynecology in Slovenia. According to our data, in 2003 61% patients were examined by a gynecologist in the last five years, in 2004 48%. In the majority of these patients, cervical cancer was diagnosed in early, localized disease stage (2003: stage I. 89%, stage II. 6.7% and stage III 3.3%. 2004: stage I. 80.9%, stage II. 13.6%, stage III 7.95% and stage IV 2.5%. In the periods of 13-24 and of 7-12 months before the diagnosis of cervical cancer, almost half of the patients had PAP II (atypical squamous or glandular cells or mildly dyskariotic cells), and 3-6 months before diagnosis, more than 60% of the patients. In the last five years before diagnosis (till 6 months before diagnosis) 2 or more negative PAP results PAP I) had 18% of patients (2003) and 22% of patients (2004). In the last three years before diagnosis (till 6 months before diagnosis) 2 or more negativc PAP results (PAP I) had 11% of patients (2003) and 7% of patients (2004). Conclusion: These results encourage us to recommend clinical audit, to analyze individual cervical cancer cases, including another independent re-evaluation of negative cervical smear and biopsies in the five-year period before diagnosis. A suitable calendar of refreshment training courses on colposcopy, which should be obligatory for all performing this examination method, also needs to be set up.
