Método: Diseño observacional, descriptivo, transversal. Universo: Mujeres de 60 años y más de la región oeste de la Provincia Pinar del Río que tuvieron biopsias que interesaban el cuello uterino. Variables: edad, motivo de consulta, diagnóstico, rendimiento citológico, incidencia y mortalidad (por 100000 mujeres de ese grupo de edades) y letalidad en %. Resultados: Los motivos principales de consulta fueron la lesión macroscópica y el sangrado posmenopáusico. Predominó el subgrupo de 60-64 años (rango 60-94). Casi el 50% tenía lesiones cervicales. La citología mostró una sensibilidad de 9,8%, especificidad de 96,5%, valor predictivo positivo de 71.4% y el negativo de 54.7%. El carcinoma escamoso invasor (CINV) en cualquiera de sus estadios presentó una incidencia promedio anual de 57,4; el adenocarcinoma endocervical (AEC) de 8,0 y el adenocarcinoma endometrial (AEM), 35.6. No hubo diferencias de edad (F=0.52; p = 0.76). El carcinoma escamoso in situ tuvo una incidencia anual 10,2. La mortalidad anual por CINV fue de 14,3 y por AEC, 3,6, mientras que por AEM fue de 11,3. La letalidad mayor se observó en el AEC (54.5 %), Conclusiones. Las mujeres de la tercera edad aportan lesiones malignas con altas tasas de mortalidad y letalidad por lo que deben ser priorizadas ante cualquier signo macroscópico o sangrado posmenopáusico. Debe hacerse un seguimiento más continuo en la mujer antes de arribar a 60 años para evitar la morbilidad y la muerte.
