SUMMARY:
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common neoplasm among women globally. Cytology is the
primary screening method, but molecular advancements in HPV detection allow for the distinction
of oncogenic types. This study evaluated the efficacy of cervicovaginal self-collection in cervical
cancer screening, comparing it with conventional cytology. With 404 women (age > 18 years),
23% with a secondary education level and 74.5% with higher education, self-collection was
analyzed for safety and adherence. The observational and analytical cross-sectional method
collected data in Recife and Cabo de Santo Agostinho. Using Papanicolaou and the Bethesda
System, the analysis revealed significant associations in age groups (p = 0.036) and atypical
microbiota (p = 0.001). Conventional oncologic cytology showed higher positivity in nulliparous
women (p = 0.015). The presence of neoplastic cells was significant in non-menopausal women (p
= 0.022). Logistic regression indicated significance between secondary and higher education (p =
0.023) and smoking (p = 0.018). The study, in addition to cervical profiles and relationships,
highlighted 79.9% approval for self-collection, contributing to strategies for cervical cancer
prevention and improving the quality of life for women in Pernambuco.
