Human Papillomavirüs (HPV), Servikal Smear ve Kolposkopik Biyopsi Sonuçlarının Karşılaştırılması: Serviks Kanseri Taramasında Bir Üniversite Hastanesinin 4 Yıllık Deneyimi

Abstract

Aim: Cervical cancer screening guidelines gradually recommend human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing since the sensitivity of cytology is relatively low. This study aimed to evaluate correlation between HPV, cervical smear cytology and colposcopy directed biopsy results. Material and Methods: Patients who underwent colposcopy directed biopsy in Ordu University Training and Teaching Hospital between January 2018 and December 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with any high-risk HPV positivity who had cervical smear cytology and colposcopy directed biopsy results were included to this study. Results of HPV subtypes, cervical smear and histologic biopsy were recorded.Results: A total of 734 patients were included to this study. The mean age of the patients was 41.9 ± 7.36 years. Hundred and sixty-five (22.5%) patients had HPV 16 alone, 35 (4.8%) had HPV 18 alone, 354 (48.2%) had other high-risk HPV subtypes alone and 180 (24.5%) had more than one high-risk HPV subtypes.
