Hysterectomy-corrected cervical cancer mortality rates in Denmark during 2002-2015: A registry-based cohort study.

Understanding reasons for the high mortality rate in older women is critical, as this may help identify interventions needed to ensure a continued decline in cervical cancer mortality in older Danish women.
