Features: Today, the prevention and treatment of cervical cancer have become a hot topic of research for scholars worldwide. Cervical cancer remains the leading killer of women in developing countries, including China. The trend of younger onset ages for cervical cancer and CIN has attracted attention. However, due to China's national conditions, cervical cancer screening efforts are highly uneven, with coverage reaching less than 1%. Yet, it is worth noting that in the early 21st century, relevant Chinese authorities took a series of measures to plan for the control of cervical cancer, leading to significant attention being paid to its prevention and treatment. Cervical cancer screening is now entering a phase of institutionalization and standardization. The diagnosis and treatment of cervical lesions have made substantial progress, with the professional team growing and clinical and basic research deepening. This gives us hope in conquering cervical cancer, which presents both challenges and opportunities.
