In Romania cancer is the second in general morbidity after cardio-vascular diseases, being followed by respiratory diseases, accidents and trauma. Considering the fact that cancer has an insidious start, a slow irreversible development towards physical and psychic invalidity, and that it affects both the person and the family and society, we can say it is very important to have a study of this illness from the social and medical point of view. The cytological examination offers, apart from the highlighting of the tumour cells, the possibility of assessing the hormonal status, and also of identifying vaginal flora. Cervical cancer is a serious chronic condition, which has great medical and social importance and has a severe evolution when detected in advanced stages. %U http://www.gbm.bio.uaic.ro/index.php/gbm/article/view/990
