What is the papillomavirus?
The human papillomavirus (HPV) is the primary cause of cervical cancer. Early detection of the virus can prevent the development of the disease from a benign tumor stage. However, despite being a preventable disease that may develop over 10-20 years from a precancerous condition to invasive cancer, cervical cancer remains one of the most common causes of death among women.
