Human papillomavirus (HPV) is known to cause genital warts, cervical cancer, penile cancer, anal cancer and oropharyngeal cancer. In North America, the lifetime cumulative incidence of HPV infection is estimated at more than 70% for all HPV types combined. A safe and effective vaccine against nine HPV types is available. HPV vaccine should be administered routinely to all girls and boys between the ages of 9 and 13 years of age. All youth who have not received the vaccine in a routine program should receive the vaccine in a 'catch-up' program. Physicians caring for children and youth should advocate for funding and implementation of universal HPV vaccine programs.
已知人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)可引发尖锐湿疣、宫颈癌、阴茎癌、肛门癌和口咽癌。在北美,所有类型HPV感染的终生累积发病率估计超过70%。目前有一种针对九种HPV类型的安全有效疫苗。HPV疫苗应常规接种给所有9至13岁的女孩和男孩。所有未在常规项目中接种疫苗的青少年都应在“补种”项目中接种该疫苗。照顾儿童和青少年的医生应倡导为普遍的HPV疫苗项目提供资金并予以实施。
