DetailsCancer is a global public health problem, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, due to aging populations as well as broader social and environmental factors such as infectious diseases, education and ethnicity. Cervical cancer is a considerable cause of death among women in developing countries despite the fact that it is preventable. It is, also, potentially curable if detected early and treated effectively. It is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in women in developing countries. Cancer burden and disparity among countries and people can be explained by prevalence, incidence and mortality, but the most direct measure of disease severity can only be provided by survival rates. Analysing cancer survival rates is an important way of discovering potential measures to be taken to improve the chances of better prognosis and survival. Cancer survival varies widely among different countries of the world due to differences in early detection and treatment modalities. By ex... Objectives Course Objective Cervical cancer can be invasive and advanced at diagnosis causing devastating suffering and premature death. Cancer stage at presentation is related to survival evaluation and several factors determine stage. The aim of the study was to examine predictors covariates associated with cervical cancer stage and its impact on patient prognosis and survival.. This retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out at Khartoum oncology hospital, Sudan.
