Description:
Protect your preteen patients today with HPV vaccine. Cervical Cancer: Just the tip of the iceberg Cervical cancer is the only type of HPV cancer for which there is a recommended screening test. Even with screening, in the United States 12,000 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer each year. Cervical Precancers Cases every year Around 216,000 high grade cervical lesions Around 468,700 low grade cervical precancers While cervical precancers are routinely screened for, these precancers may require invasive testing and treatment. Other HPV Cancers Cases Every Year • 800 penile cancer • 3,200 vulvar and vaginal cancer • 5,700 anal/rectal cancer • 12,200 oropharyngeal cancer Recommended cancer screening tests are not available yet for these cancers. These cancers may not be detected until they cause health problems. Over 90% of cancers caused by HPV are preventable through HPV vaccination. Don’t rely on screening to catch it later. Protect them now with HPV vaccination. https://www.cdc.gov/hpv/hcp/more-than-screening/index.html HPV Vaccine is cancer prevention. infographic-hpv-screening-508.pdf
