Estimated Cancer Risk in Females Who Meet the Criteria to Exit Cervical Cancer Screening
In this decision analytical comparative modeling study, a low risk of cervical cancer and cervical cancer death was estimated among females who fulfilled the US criteria to exit screening with cotesting; however, the risks increased with age and/or time since screening exit. The findings suggest that future guidelines should consider acceptable risk levels when defining screening modality and exit age requirements.
