Article Excerpts about Cervical Cancer
Cancer of the cervix, a very common kind of cancer in women, is a
disease in which cancer (malignant) cells are found in the tissues of the
cervix. The cervix is the opening of the uterus (womb). It connects the
uterus to the vagina (the birth canal). Cancer of the cervix usually grows
slowly over a period of time. Before cancer cells are found on the cervix,
the tissues of the cervix go through changes in which abnormal cells begin
to appear (a condition called dysplasia). Later, cancer starts to grow and
spread more deeply into the cervix and to surrounding areas. (Source: excerpt from Cervical Cancer: NWHIC)

Cervical Cancer is listed as a "rare disease" by the Office of
Rare Diseases (ORD) of the National Institutes of Health
(NIH). This means that Cervical Cancer, or a subtype of Cervical Cancer,
affects less than 200,000 people in the US population.
