Résumé
"The scope of the study was to analyze the screening for cervical cancer in the state of Maranhão using secondary data from the Cervi- cal Cancer Information System (SISCOLO). A ret- rospective descriptive study was conducted using secondary data from 139505 cytopathology exams recorded in SISCOLO in Maranhão in 2011. The variables: age, education, adequacy of material, represented epithelia, microbiology and cellular changes detected in Pap smear tests were selected. The age group between 25 to 29 years and incom- plete basic schooling were the most frequent find- ings. The most common microbiological agents detected were bacilli (52.8%), cocci (45.5%) and Lactobacillus sp (32.6%). Inflammation was the most common benign cellular alteration (86.3%). Low-grade intraepithelial lesions were the most prevalent atypical findings in squamous cells (0.6%), followed by high-grade squamous intraep- ithelial lesions (0.2%). Squamous cell carcinoma was observed in 0.003% and 0.006% for adeno- carcinoma. SISCOLO proved a useful tool for studying aspects related to cancer screening of the cervix, which can orient actions to reduce the in- cidence and mortality from this cancer."
