Multiple high risk HPV infections are common in cervical neoplasia and young women in a cervical screening population

Table 4

Prevalence of HR-HPV types in the Edinburgh and Lothian routine cervical screening population, stratified according to cytological grade of dyskaryosis

Sample types (N) Overall distribution of HR-HPV types
Values are numbers of samples and percentages in parenthesis. Because of the existence of multiple HPV infections, where appropriate, women have been counted more than once. Specific HR-HPV types are listed in increasing order of prevalence according to cytological grade of dyskaryosis. Borderline and mild cases have in this instance been combined to evaluate type specific HR-HPV infection in low grade dyskaryosis cases, cumulatively. Although the HPV type specific infections detected in cytologically unsatisfactory samples are included in the overall numbers, they are not detailed separately within the table because only four tested HPV positive (two single infections with HPV-16, one multiple infection with HPV-16 and HPV-83, and one unknown type).
HR-HPV, high risk human papillomavirus.
