Cervical cancer represents a major public health problem. In general, the evolution of cervical cancer is slow, going through detectable and curable preclinical phases. Screening programs for precursor lesions (cervical intraepithelial neoplasms) are based on the use of cytopathological (preventive) examination, also known as Pap smear. The aim of this study was to verify the frequency of histopathological diagnoses of low-risk (CIN 1) and high-risk (CIN 2 and 3) cervical intraepithelial neoplasias, according to age groups, in a regional referral hospital in northern Rio de Janeiro in 2014. 2016, checking whether the recommendations of the Ministry of Health reflect the epidemiological data found in our region. This is a qualitative and quantitative research involving 352 samples. Data were statistically analyzed using EPIDATA Software version 3.0. The results show that the highest percentages of diagnoses obtained from precursor lesions, both low-risk and high-risk, occurred in the 25-35 age group, with progressive decline in these diagnoses as the age groups increased.
