Postmenopausal Bleeding: A Blessing in Disguise
Abstract
This case report highlights the issue of a clinical need for screening older women beyond the age of 65 years for HPV screening. In view of the emerging evidence of a second peak of cervical cancer in the older population and the fact that there is a reported increase in the prevalence of HPV in this high-risk group, there is room for a consideration of HPV screening in post menopausal women beyond the age of 65 years.
