Factores de riesgo asociados a cáncer de cuello uterino en mujeres de 20 a 50 años. Hospital Vicente Rodríguez Witt, Solca-Loja, periodo enero 2010 a diciembre 2014.

The present research responds to a serious public health problem as is the incidence of cervical cancer, so that, the main general objective set was “To identify the main risk factors associated with cervical cancer in women aged 20 to 50 year-olds, Hospital "Vicente Rodriguez Witt" SOLCA - Loja, during the period January 2010 to December 2014 ". This research is descriptive, analytical and retrospective and case-control. The sample consisted of 64 women at childbearing age between 20 - 50 year-olds diagnosed with cervical cancer; and a minimum of 2 women without this diagnosis for everyone who has been diagnosed with this condition, as a witness group. The obtained results were processed through the program EPI-INFO 9 and Excel; for inferential analysis it was used pertinently the Relative Risk (RR) calculation, odds ratio (OR), Chi2; y, p=<0,05 test; with 95% of probability. Among the main results we noted that the presence of human papillomavirus is the main risk factor for developing cervical cancer, with an RR of 22.06 times for the presence of cervical cancer; in the same way other factors such as first intercourse before the age of 18 (RR 1.38 more times); parity, (Chi2 9,91538> Chi2 tabulado5,99), demonstrating so their association and affecting more women who are multiparous. Regarding the use of contraceptives as a risk factor for cervical cancer, it was demonstrated an 88% in those who reported its use. Regarding to the type of contraceptive there is a statistically significant association, affecting fewer women using IUDs. Cigarette consumption, as a risk factor represents twice about women who reported not having used cigarettes; while women who consumed more than 6 per day, present a 92% of risk compared to women who reported having consumed from one to five cigarettes a day. This is an epidemiological contribution and is the basis for the development of subsequent clinical studies.
