Аннотация
OBJECTIVES: To determine the relative frequencies of malignant disease of the female genital tract.
DESIGN: A retrospective review of histopathology report.
SETTING: University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Port Harcourt, Nigeria.
SUBJECTS: Women who had gynaecologic cancers.
RESULTS: The cervix was the commonest site of malignant disease (63.1% ) followed by the endometrium, ovary, vulva and vagina. The age of the patients varied with the type of cancer as follows - endometrium (54.8 years), cervix (51.9 years), ovary (40.4 years), choriocarcinoma (30.6 years).
CONCLUSION: There is an urgent need to establish a national community - based cervical cytology service to reduce the incidence of cervical cancer and its attendant morbidity and mortality.
