It is now accepted that infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV) is central to cervical carcinogenesis. Worldwide, the prevalence of HPV in cervical tumors is 99.7%.
Additional epidemiologic risk factors for cervical cancer include early onset of sexual activity, multiple sexual partners, and a high-risk sexual partner, history of a sexually transmitted infection, smoking, immunosuppression, low socioeconomic status and previous history of vulvar, vaginal or cervical squamous dysplasia.
Physical exam is crucial for determining extent of disease. FIGO guidelines allow palpation and inspection of the primary tumor, palpation of the groin and supraclavicular lymph nodes. Careful rectovaginal exam allows more thorough investigation of possible parametrial, cul-de-sac, or pelvic sidewall involvement. Exam under anesthesia can provide a more comfortable and thorough exam. Diagnostic exams such as radiographs of chest and skeleton, intravenous pylogram (IVP) studies may be utilized. Procedures such as conization, cystoscopy, and proctosigmoidoscopy are also acceptable diagnostic aids for staging.
Critics to the FIGO staging state that important prognostic factors, such as lymph node involvement cannot be determined with allowable staging procedures.
