I'm Dr Maurie Markman from Cancer Treatment Centers of America.. It was recently published inIn this particular analysis, researchers looked at data from the California Cancer Registry, a total of 21,442 patients over the age of 21, with their first primary diagnosis ofbetween 2009 and 2018. Of considerable interest and concern, 17% of this population was over the age of 65.
The point to be made here is that there have been solid recommendations based on data that women over the age of 65 may not need routine screening for cervical cancer. It's always been clear when these statements have been made that this relates to a population of women who have had routine screening throughout their much younger years for decades, and if all the screening has been negative, then perhaps you can stop after the age of 65.
This analysis is important and the data are quite relevant. Perhaps we need to modify some of the recommendations we made for screening or at least emphasize what those screening recommendations mean in terms of discontinuing screening for an older population.
