Abstract

415 female residents of the City of Tomsk and Tomsk Region (patients with cervical carcinoma--22, dysplasia stage I-III--23 and healthy subjects--71) were screened for HPV16/18 infection, which was diagnosed in 18.3%. In the cervical carcinoma group, infection was detected in 27.4%, among patients with advanced cervical dysplasia--25.7%, and in those with background pathologies and healthy females--12.3 and 38%, respectively. Infection peaks were reported for the age brackets of 31-40 years (19.7%) and 51-60 years (19.6%). HPV-infection showed a wide range of colposcopic symptoms: areas of atypical blood vessels, leukoplakia, atypical epithelium and iodine-negative patches. Papillomavirus-related morphological changes in endometrial cells were typical of those associated with any viral infection and showed no specific features.
