ABSTRACT
The occurence of pre-invasive cervical carcinoma among siblings and in mother-daughter pairs has been reported previously in Europe. Invasive cervical cancer diagnosed in two Nigerian sisters within a period of three months is reported. It is suggested that sisters and daughters of patients with cervical cancer may be at a higher risk of developing the lesion because of similar socio-economic and cultural backgrounds and should therefore have regular cervical screening
