The situation of cervical cancer prevention in Croatia is hardly well established, in spite of the fact that opportunistic screening is on going for some time and that cervical cancer is on the 8th place of female cancer. Each year, approximately 350 women develop cervical cancer and about 100 die from the disease. A matter of concern is the steady state of the mortality rate. Thus, appropriate cervical cancer prevention programmes should be set up without delay in Croatia.
