Abstract

Breast and cervical cancers, among the most common cancers in women, are included within the scope of the screening program in Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening, and Training Center (KETEM). The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the applications made for breast and cervical cancer screening, examinations, and anamnesis forms taken in this direction during the 2016, 2017 years. In this cross-sectional retrospective study, 632 applications made to Elazığ KETEM for breast and cervical cancer screening were evaluated. SPSS 22.0 program was used in data analysis. Kolmogrov-Smirnov test was used to investigate whether the data were normally distributed. Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests were used for statistical evaluations and p<0.05 was accepted as statistical significance. The median age of participants was 50 (min:40, max:66). Cervical precancerous lesions were found in the smear test of 17 people. Mammography results revealed that 42.6% of the participants had BI-RADS 1, 2, and 3. As a result of further examinations and biopsy, 17 (2.7%) of 25 participants with BI-RADS 4, 5 were found to have breast cancer. The results obtained as a result of the screening were not found to be related to the socio-demographic characteristics of the participants. Screening tests play an important role in the early diagnosis of cancer, decreasing mortality and morbidity. Mammography and Pap smear tests are inexpensive, easily applicable, easily accessible, and affordable screening tests. Therefore, the promotion of these screening programs should be increased and the public should be encouraged to participate in these programs.

Abstract

Meme ve serviks kanserleri kadınlarda sık görülen kanserler olup, Kanser Erken Teşhis, Tarama ve Eğitim Merkezi (KETEM)’de tarama programı kapsamındadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 2016 ve 2017 yıllarını kapsayan süreçte, meme ve serviks kanseri taraması amacıyla yapılan başvuruları, tetkikleri ve bu doğrultuda alınmış olan anamnez formlarını retrospektif olarak değerlendirmektir. Kesitsel, retrospektif olan bu çalışmada meme ve serviks kanseri taraması için 2016 ve 2017 yıllarında Elazığ KETEM’e yapılan 632 başvuru değerlendirilmiştir. Veriler SPSS 22.0 programıyla değerlendirilmiş, normal dağılım için Kolmogrov-Smirnov testi kullanılmıştır. İstatistiksel değerlendirmelerde Mann Whitney U ve ki-kare testleri kullanılmış, p<0,05 istatistiksel anlamlılık olarak kabul edilmiştir. 632 kadın katılımcının yaş medyanı 50 (min:40, maks:66) idi. 17 kişinin (%2,7) smear sonucunda servikal prekanseröz lezyon saptanmıştır. Mamografi sonucu BI-RADS 1, 2 ve 3 olan %42,6 (269 kişi)’dir. Yapılan ileri tetkikler ve biyopsi sonucu BI-RADS 4, 5 olan 25 kişinin yapılan biyopsi sonucu 17 (%2,7) kişide meme kanseri tespit edilmiştir. Tarama sonucu elde edilen sonuçlar kişilerin sosyo-demografik özellikleri ile ilişkili bulunmamıştır. Tarama testleri kanser erken teşhisinde önemli yere sahip olup erken teşhis mortalite ve morbiditeyi azaltmaktadır. Mamografi ve Pap smear testi ucuz, kolay uygulanabilir, kolay ulaşılabilir, toplum tarafından kabul edilebilir tarama testleridir. Bu tarama programlarının tanıtımı arttırılarak halk katılım için teşvik edilmelidir.
