Genotipos de papiloma virus en mujeres de la selva peruana con inspección visual con ácido acético positivo

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the distribution of papillomavirus types in women with a confirmatory diagnosis with visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA). Methods: Women with positive cytology for intraepithelial lesion were included. Papillomavirus genotypes were analyzed using the Xpert® HPV system (GXHPV-CE-10) in conjunction with pathological cytology analysis of cervical tissue samples. Results: A prevalence of human papillomavirus infection of 61% was found, there was a correlation in age and the viral types detected with the P5 color channel (human papillomavirus 39, 56, 66, 68), age of the first sexual intercourse and human papillomavirus 18, number of pregnancies with P3 (human papillomavirus 31, 33, 35, 52, 58) and P5. The history of having a sexually transmitted infection was correlated with papillomavirus 18, P3, and P4 papillomavirus 51 and 59). In coinfection, a correlation was found between papillomavirus 16 genotypes with P3 (R: - 0.11), P4 (R: 0.22), and P5 (R: -0.14), with having had previous treatment (R: - 0.14). Papillomavirus 18 correlated with: P3 (R: 0.28). Conclusions: High-risk human papillomavirus typess 16, 18, and P3 were the most predominant in established cytological grades and among coinfected women.
