Article Synopsis
  • Cervical cancer (CC) is a significant public health issue in Brazil, particularly in Mato Grosso, where late diagnoses and geographical challenges complicate treatment outcomes.
  • A study analysis revealed that the hospital mortality rate for CC patients was 9.88%, with a median survival of 43.7% and significant factors affecting survival, such as age, surgical procedures, and ICU usage.
  • The findings emphasize the urgent need for improved healthcare strategies, including better early diagnosis and increased access to quality services for cervical cancer patients in Brazil.
