Abstract Cervical cancer ( CC ) is the leading cause of cancer‐related death among women in sub‐Saharan Africa, primarily because limited access to effective screening and preventive treatment. Our aim was assess feasibility a human papillomavirus HPV )‐based screen‐and‐treat approach low‐resource context. We recruited 1012 aged 30–49 years through campaign conducted District Hospital Dschang, Cameroon. Participants performed self‐sampling, which tested for high‐risk HR ‐ DNA using...
The use of thermocoagulation for the treatment cervical precancerous lesions has recently generated a great deal interest. Our aim was to determine feasibility this outpatient procedure in context cancer (CC) screen-and-treat campaign sub-Saharan Africa.Between July and December 2015, women living area Dschang (Cameroon) aged between 30 49 years, were enrolled CC screening study. HPV self-sampling performed as primary test who either "HPV 16/18/45-positive" or "positive other types VIA"...
Option recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) includes human papillomavirus (HPV) primary screening followed visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) triage. We implemented a program based on 3T-approach (Test-Triage and Treat). Our objective was to verify the effectiveness of defining set performance indices. A sensitization campaign performed in Dschang (Cameroon) women aged 30-49 years were invited participate for 3T-approach. Participants HPV self-sampling (Self-HPV), analyzed...
A simple system for visual inspection with acetic acid assessment, named ABCD criteria, has been developed to increase accuracy triaging of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive women. This study aimed determine the criteria detection histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade two or worse (CIN2+) in HPV-positive women living a low-resource setting.Prospective diagnostic accuracy.Cervical cancer screening programme based on 3T-Approach (test, triage and treat)...
The World Health Organization recommends thermal ablation as an alternative to cryotherapy treat women with precancerous lesions in low-resource settings. However, limited data are available on women's experience and adverse events (AEs) of the procedure context Sub-Saharan Africa. objective this study was evaluate acceptability safety screened positive for cervical lesions.Asymptomatic aged 30-49 years old living Dschang District were invited participate a cancer screening campaign termed...
Objective: Persistent infection with human papillomavirus is the prerequisite for development of cervical precancerous and cancerous lesions. The aim this study was to determine time-to-viral clearance in a population papillomavirus–infected Cameroonian women examine possible predictors viral persistence. Methods: We conducted prospective cohort based on papillomavirus–positive having previously been recruited self-human papillomavirus-based cancer screening campaign, who were invited...
