Abstract
Cervical cancer is a malignant disease of the female reproductive system and is one of the most
common malignant diseases affecting the female population. It is ranked second in the number of
women with breast cancer in Republic of North Macedonia and third in the world. Thanks to
preventive vaccination and PAP screening, it has a positive effect on reducing the number of
newly diagnosed and deceased patients with cervical cancer. The mortality rate in our country
from cervical cancer is on average 5-6 women per 100,000 women. Due to timely vaccination
and timely screening, the number of newly diagnosed patients is declining from 2016 to 2018. In
2016, 47 women died of cervical cancer in Republic of North macedonia, and in 2017, died 30
women. In 2016, there were 37 patients with malignant neoplasm of the cervix of the uterus on
the territory of the Municipality of Stip. In 2017 on the territory of Municipality of Stip there
were 28 patients with cervical cancer and in 2018 there were 19 patients with cervical cancer.
The data show a positive trend of decrease in the number of newly infected patients on the
