A clear causal relationship has been established between human papilloma virus (HPV) infection and the development of cervical cancer. Genital HPV infection is currently the most common sexually transmitted disease worldwide. The recent 2001 American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology Consensus Guidelines have included HPV testing for management of women with cervical cytological abnormalities. Clinicians now face the challenge of deciding when to use HPV testing in follow-up of abnormal Pap tests. This article includes updates on HPV, cervical cancer screening, and HPV testing technology. Recommendations for integration of HPV testing into clinical practice are provided.
人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染与宫颈癌的发生之间已确立明确的因果关系。生殖器HPV感染是目前全球最常见的性传播疾病。2001年美国阴道镜及宫颈病理学会的最新共识指南已将HPV检测纳入对宫颈细胞学异常女性的管理中。临床医生现在面临着决定何时在巴氏试验异常的随访中使用HPV检测的挑战。本文包括HPV、宫颈癌筛查及HPV检测技术的最新情况。文中还提供了将HPV检测纳入临床实践的建议。
