Cervical human papillomavirus infection and cervical lesions in postmenopausal women / 中华全科医师杂志

ABSTRACT

The status of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical lesions was analyzed among 20 420 postmenopausal women who participated in gynecological disease screening in Shanghai Minhang district 2017.The infection rate of HPV in postmenopausal women was 8.37％(1 710/20 420),and the infection of high-risk HPV 52,58,16,18 accounted for 95.26％(2 029/2 130).The HPV infection rate was 7.37％ in women aged ≥65 years,and that was 8.62％ in women aged＜65 years(x2=6.640,P=0.010).Among 552 cases with pathological results there were 133 cases of cervical lesions.The top 4 HPV infections in patients with cervical lesions were HPV16,52,58 and 33.The rate of cervical lesions was 22.35％ in ≥65 age group,and 24.93％ in ＜65 age group (P＞0.05).The study suggests that HPV genotyping should be taken into account in gynecological disease screening,and the subjects with high-risk HPV infection should be closely followed up;meanwhile,the age limits of screening population should be appropriately extended.
