Precancerous lesions of the uterine cervix, due to HPV infections, are still today a great medical challenge. This clinical case highlighted the effectiveness of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), vitamin B12, folic acid, and hyaluronic acid (HA) in counteracting HPV lesions in a 39-year-old patient with a long history of viral persistence, cervical lesions of various degree, and several unsuccessful surgical approaches. After eight weeks of treatment, both the histological and cytological analyses revealed only a chronic cervicitis without any malignant lesions or cellular dysplasia, thus reducing the urgency of an invasive surgery, a total hysterectomy.
由于人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染导致的子宫颈癌前病变,至今仍是一项重大的医学挑战。本临床病例突出了表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯(EGCG)、维生素B12、叶酸和透明质酸(HA)在一名39岁患者中对抗HPV病变的有效性,该患者有长期病毒持续感染史、不同程度的宫颈病变以及多次手术治疗失败。经过八周的治疗,组织学和细胞学分析均显示仅为慢性宫颈炎,无任何恶性病变或细胞发育异常,从而降低了进行侵入性手术(全子宫切除术)的紧迫性。
