Abstract:
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women worldwide,and several screen-ing methods are currently available,with DNA testing for human papillomavirus(HPV)considered to be the most effective technique compared to other screening methods.However,due to the lack of organized screen-ing programs and facilities in developing countries,effective screening of cervical cancer is difficult to imple-ment,thereby delaying disease prediction and contributing to the high incidence of cervical cancer.In order to improve cervical cancer screening coverage in women,a simple,time-saving and non-invasive screening method is needed.At present,more and more evidence supports the validity and practicability of self-sampling as an al-ternative method for primary HPV screening.In this paper,we reviewed the application progress of HPV self-sampling in cervical cancer screening from three aspects:vaginal self-collection,initial urine sample self-collec-tion and menstrual blood sample self-collection.
