This study was performed to determine whether the incidence of cervical cancer in women aged 35 or younger has changed over the last 10 years and to examine the clinical characteristics of the cases. The incidence of cervical cancer in women aged 35 or younger were significantly greater in 1987-1991 than 1992-1996 (p = 0.001). Most new cases were detected by routine cytological screening.
