Sexually-transmitted viral diseases in women: clinical and epidemiological aspects and advances in laboratory diagnosis

Abstract: Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) have long been known, but they have only recently been recognized as causes of significant long-term morbidity, mainly as a result of increased knowledge concerning viral STDs. The relationship of these diseases with conditions such as anogenital cancer and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) has made viral STDs an important issue in the healthcare of women and infants, and in reproductive health. The evolution of the AIDS pandemic is now characterized by growing diff… Show more

“…HPV infection is relatively prevalent in the Brazilian general population 60 , and especially prevalent and aggressive among women living with HIV/AIDS 61,62,63,64,65 . HIV infection may increase the oncogenicity of high-risk HPV types and the activation of low risk types, with higher rates of squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL), and uterine cancer, over time 63,66 .…”

“…O Papiloma vírus Humano (HPV) é um agente infeccioso inserido no grupo de doenças sexualmente transmissível (DST) relacionadas ao aparecimento de neoplasias benignas e malignas no colo de útero e região vulvovaginal e anal (DOOBAR, 2005;PINTO et al, 2005).…”

“…A efetiva associação entre o câncer de colo uterino com a contaminação e persistência de alguns tipos do HPV justifica mudanças na abordagem clínica para indivíduos HIV+ e pacientes com AIDS. Habitualmente, essas pacientes são orientadas a submeter-se a condutas mais intervencionistas e, também, revestem-se de maiores cuidados no seguimento de prevenção e mesmo no tratamento das lesões de baixo e alto grau do colo uterino 11,13 . Os cuidados que cercam outras DST também deverão ser adotados nessa população, com possíveis repercussões, inclusive na indicação de vacina contra tipos do HPV de alto risco neoplásico.…”

“…Baixa carga viral para HIV, por sua vez, é considerada bom marcador preditivo do prognóstico da doença viral e/ ou de sobrevida 13 . Por isso mesmo o acompanhamento de indivíduos soropositivos para o HIV se faz com o controle periódico desses marcadores laboratoriais.…”
