“…In addition, according to Shahsiah's report patients with HPV-16 and HPV-18 prevalence were 75% and 18.3% respectively, while our study reported 90.66% (41). Perhaps the variety of clinical specimens is a reason for a lower prevalence report in Khorasanizadeh's study and Shahsiah's report.…”

“…These data suggest the distribution of HPV16 and 18 in cervical lesions might be different from that in other regions of Pakistan, as in South Karachi the prevalence of HPV16 infection has been reported to be associated with 75%–93% of carcinomas whereas HPV18 infection is associated with 4%–6.6% [11,12]. Studies in other countries of a similar cultural background have also reported a high prevalence of HPV16 infection in cervical lesions collected from Iran (76% [22], 75% [23], 67.6% [24]) and Saudi Arabia (65.2% [25]) with a corresponding low HPV18 prevalence. However, another study conducted in Iran showed that HPV18 was more commonly detected in cervical lesions than HPV16 (41% HPV18 positive and 29.5% HPV16 positive) [26].…”

“…29 Most of these studies, however, are based on normal or abnormal cervical cytology screening results obtained from women visiting the gynecologic institutes 28,29. As most HPV infections are self resolving, these subtypes do not represent the major oncogenic subtypes, as evident from the prevalence of HPV16 and 18 in most of the cervical cancer samples from Pakistan and its neighboring countries, including Iran and Saudi Arabia [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38]. Although most of the studies are in agreement, regional differences within Pakistan are evident.…”
