“…Dois estudos brasileiros, realizados respectivamente em São Paulo e Região Sudeste, encontraram prevalência de 2,1 e 2,6% utilizando também a citologia oncótica para o diagnós-tico 16,17 , enquanto pesquisa realizada nas Regiões Sudeste e Sul e na cidade de Buenos Aires verificou prevalência mais elevada (31%), ressalta-se que foram consideradas todas as alterações citológicas -incluindo ASCUS -ou NIC na biópsia cervical 18 . Está bem documentado que as mulheres positivas para o HIV têm alta prevalência de infecção cervical pelo HPV e de NIC ou SIL (lesão intraepitelial) 19,20 . A análise da literatura mundial também destacou grandes variações.…”

“…The HPV types 16 and 18 are the most frequent types found in cervical squamous cell carcinoma, accounting for more than 70% of cases 18 . A higher frequency of HPV infection and an increased risk of cervical cancer are found in immunosuppressed women, as can be observed in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients [19][20][21] . The studies that assessed the association of HPV infection in HTLV-1 patients have not reached a consensus on the epidemiological aspects of this co-infection [22][23][24][25] .…”

“…These immunological abnormalities and the highest exposure to risk factors common to HTLV-1 and HPV could explain the high prevalence of HPV infection 31 . Other immunosuppressive diseases are also associated with a high prevalence of HPV infection, such as HIV infection 20 and systemic lupus erythematosus 32 . However, no difference was found in the proportion of CD4-T lymphocytes and in the HTLV-1 proviral load of HTLV-1-infected patients with HPV, compared with HTLV-1-infected women.…”

“…The most important types are classified in the mucosa HPV group and present a high prevalence worldwide, such as HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 45, 51 and 58. In this way, HIV infected women tend to acquire high risk HPV types in single or in multiple infections (Levi et al 2002). Among high risk types linked to squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL), HPV 16 is the most common type in HIV seronegative people, and it is associated with the majority of high grade lesions and carcinoma.…”
