In Sicily region 39,6% of women (aged 25-64) are screened regularly, meaning every 3 years. Considering regional tariffs and vaccine acquisition cost, the vaccination of 12-year-old girls with a 90% coverage could prevent 169 cases of cervicocarcinoma and 68 related deaths and thus results to be cost-effective (15.534 €/QALY). When the vaccination programme is extended to 16-year-old girls a further 181 cancer cases and 75 deaths could be prevented, with a very similar cost-effectiveness ratio. In Sicily region, the net cost for woman vaccinated is 171 € for the single cohort and 176 € for the multiple cohort.
