Objective: To describe the epidemiological and histological aspects of cervical cancer in Cameroon. Materials and Methods: It was a descriptive retrospective study carried out over a period of 10 years (2005-2014), on malignant tumors of the cervix observed at the laboratory of Anatomic Pathology in four regions (Center, Littoral, West, South-west). The studied parameters were frequency, age, sex, localization, histological type and the immuno-histochemical aspects. Results: A total of 2078 cases with an annual frequency of 20.78 cases were registered; the peak was reached in 2010 with 304 cases (14.62%). Cervical cancer was the main genital cancer affecting women with a percentage of 82.26%. The average age of the patients was 52.33 ± 12. 80 years old, with extremes from 22 to 93 years old. The age group from 40 to 59 had more than half of the cases, with 1094 cases (52.65%). The major histological types recorded were squamous cell cancer with 1687 cases (81.51%) and adenocarcinoma with 269 cases (12.95%). Conclusion: Cervical cancer is the chief genital cancer affecting female genital organs. The predominant histological types are squamous cell cancers.
