For all breakthroughs in the treatment of cancer of the uterine cervix diagnosis of the incipient stages of malignancy still poses unique problems. The studies made on the basis of the clinical hospital N 16 and the Oncologic Centre of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, histological investigations conducted on the basis of the clinical hospital N 25 and the Ukraine MH Oncological Centre permitted the examination of 209 women who had applied for medical advice for background and pretumour disorders of the neck of the womb. On having done the statistical processing of data, analysis of the secured findings was performed. The choice of the relevant method and theoretical preparation for the regression analysis were put through as recommended by Lakin G. F. Thus, the uterine cervix background and pretumour morbidity has two age peaks of different degree: the first--the main peak--falls on age 25, the second peak--that of a weaker degree--falls on age 38 years. The above two peaks fall on the active reproductive period of life (25 to 40 years of age)--just that time in women's life during which high case rates are recordable with background and pretumour pathology.
