ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the triage value of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV)detection in women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS).Methods Two huandred women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) were selected by thinprep cell test(TCT) simultaneously using HPV DNA testing by hybrid capture Ⅱ (HC) and biopsy under the colposcopy,compared the HR-HPV DNA testing with final pathological diagnosis.CIN (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia) means cervical biopsy positive.Results The positive rate of cervical biopsy in HPV positive patients was 60.38％(96/159),and in HPV negative patients was 21.95％(9/41),the difference was obviously (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion HR-HPV detection is a good triage approach for the patients with ASCUS.
