The study of 265 cervical carcinomas seen over a period of 11 years in the territory of New Caledonia reveals significant incidence rates according to ethnic groups. Standardized incidence rates (World population) are respectively 20.37 and 35.81 in the European and in the Melanesian ethnic groups. These results are confirmed by the indirect standardization method. The efficacy of screening programs has been estimated on a sample of 10,764 cytologies. 62% of cervical cancers were detected by cytology. The selection of populations at high risk is the most important condition to ensure optimal efficacy of gynecological cancer screening.
