A cervical screening campaign is implemented in the Isere department since 1990 for women aged 50 to 69, together with breast cancer and colo-rectal cancer screening. The attendance rate is about 30% but a survey performed among this population shows that 68.6% of these women did presented for screening during the year following their invitation. One and a half per cent of all smears were abnormal or ASCUS smears. Cancer detection rate for invasive cancer and CIN III was 1.3/1000. General practitioners and gynaecologists took the same part in the programme. During a postal survey conducted among them, they declared that they felt concerned with cancer screening, even if they met some difficulties. This results suggest that nominative invitations and a good cooperation of GPs may improve the coverage of eligible women. For the future success of the National Programme, which is to be implemented in France, organisational arrangements have to be set up. The review of positive points and difficulties met by Isere's local programme may help to discuss it.
