Abstract
An overview of mass screening for precancer and invasive cancer of the cervix uteri in Sweden 1964-1980 is given. Results of the screening program are presented. The decrease of incidence and mortality from invasive cancer of the cervix is presented and discussed. The increase of diagnosis of cancer in situ is illustrated.
