Prevalence of Human Papillomavirus Genotypes in Routine Pap Smear of 2,562 Korean Women Determined by PCR-DNA Sequencing

Abstract: The infections by human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are clearly associated with the subsequent development of cervical cancer. In this study, HPV genotype distribution and prevalence were detected in Korean women from January to December 2008 using PCR-DNA sequencing. A total of 2,562 cervical samples from Korean women having routine Pap smear cytology screening were used. HPV DNA was extracted from cervical swab samples and amplified by PCR in L1 region of HPV. HPV DNA was detected in 23.2% and 65.5% from the gro… Show more

“…At the same time this discordance may be the explanation of erroneous false positive diagnosis of abnormal cytological results. The present study clearly demonstrates the presence of peak of HR-HPV infection in relation to age, with increasing the prevalence of HR-HPV infection with advancing age until reaches the peak in the age group (21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30) years then decline after that. In general, it is well observed worldwide that the prevalence estimates of HPV infections are age dependant and shows three patterns of distributions.…”

“…(Table 4) show distribution of HR-HPV positivity with regard to grading of cervical abnormality, the prevalence of HR-HPV infection rate increases with increasing the grade of abnormality reaching to (80%) and (87.5%) in cases of LSIL and HSIL respectively, while the positivity for ASC-US was ranking (45.9%), which was significantly less (P-value=0.029), although the positivity in cases of HSIL was more than in the cases of LSIL the difference was statistically not significant (P-value =0.671).
