Cervical cancer is unlike most cancer types because it is mainly caused by persistent infection with a virus: human papillomavirus (HPV). In 2022, more than 660 000 women are estimated to have been diagnosed with cervical cancer worldwide and about 350 000 women are estimated to have died from the disease (WHO-IARC).
