Abstract

Introduction. Incidence, mortality and survival studies are important indicators of success in the fight against cancer. The incidence, mortality and survival rates for women with gynecological cancers vary widely between regions of the world, depending on geographical location, economic status and level of health care.

Aim. Comparative analysis of the dynamics of incidence, mortality, and survival of patients with cervical cancer in the Northwestern Federal District of the Russian Federation (NWFD RF), in the Russian Federation as a whole, and in the northern European countries located at the same latitude over a 10-year period (2010-2020).

Materials and Methods. Incidence, mortality and survival data for the period 2010 to 2020 according to the newly created Population Cancer Registry Database (DB PRR) of the NWFD RF, which includes 11 constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Incidence, mortality and survival rates were compared with those in the Nordic countries; data were obtained from the Association of the Nordic Cancer Registries website https://nordcan.iarc.fr/en.

Results. The incidence rate of cervical cancer in Russia as a whole and in Northern Europe remains stable, and there is a slight decrease in the NWFD from 2010 to 2020. However, the incidence rate in Russia and the NWFD is relatively higher than in Northern Europe. The regions of Arkhangelsk, Kaliningrad, Novgorod and Pskov had the highest incidence rates of cervical cancer in the NWFD. The highest incidence rates of cervical cancer in the Nordic countries were recorded in the Faroe Islands, Greenland and Norway, and the lowest in Finland. Cervical cancer mortality is decreasing in Russia, the NWFD and northern European countries, but there is still a gap between European and Russian indicators. At the same time, there is a trend towards an increase in the relative survival of cervical cancer patients in Northern European countries between 2017 and 2021, while survival rates in the NWFD regions do not show an upward trend.

Conclusion. It is necessary to increase the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer in the regions of the NWFD RF.
