Abstract	Cervical cancer mainly affects women of reproductive age, and is a serious public health problem due to the high mortality rate caused by late diagnosis. The general objective of this study is to discuss the importance of cytopathological examination (Pap smear test) for the prevention of cervical cancer. The study was conducted through a bibliographical research, with material found in the databases of the Virtual Health Library, totaling 20 articles, published between 2012 and 2017, in Portuguese; in full; available; and directly related to the theme. The reading and analysis of the articles showed that the knowledge of Brazilian women about the prevention of cervical cancer is low and is related to the sociodemographic, economic and cultural situation. Primary Health Care offers the cytopathological examination free of charge, but it doesn't always achieve women's adherence, and the beliefs and myths about cervical cancer and the preventive examination are relevant. Thus, nurses play an important role in this population, especially in health education, in order to change concepts and achieve broad coverage for prevention. The nurse needs to combine knowledge with practice, have a physical structure, adequate work organization and offer humanized care to women, with the host and information being the main strategies to approach, in order to obtain full adherence to the cervical cancer preventive examination.
