Aim: The objective of the present investigation is the study of cervical pap smears in a tertiary care hospital. Methods and Material: This research was carried out at the Department of Pathology, Lord Buddha Koshi Medical College and Hospital, Saharsa, Bihar, and 50 women participants with cervical cancer disease were included. The duration of the study was one year. Local ideas and culture were incorporated. Confidentiality was assured. They were given thorough explanations in their native tongue about the purpose and aim of the survey. Result: There were 50 women subjects analyzed out of which the age range of 30-39 years had the highest percentage of cases (38%). The oldest case involved a 79-year-old man. A minimum of 4% of instances involved people under the age of 70-79. Conclusion: This test is an effective analytical tool for discerning cervical cancer. The results obtained from this study demonstrate that the pap test is exceedingly sensitive, specific, and accurate in detecting pre-cancerous changes in the cervix. Therefore, it is recommended that all women above the age of 20 should be routinely screened for cervical cancer with a pap test.
