As many as 20% of incident cervical cancer diagnoses occur in patients
65 or older. It is uncertain whether these patients have either had
inadequate cervical cancer screening and, thus, preventable cancer, or
they have developed cervical cancer after 65 despite adequate cervical
cancer screening according to the current guidelines. This study is
designed to characterize patients who are diagnosed with cervical cancer
at age 65 or older to guide future research to prevent cervical cancer
in this population.
