ABSTRACT
One hundred formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues with histopathologic diagnosed invasive cervical cancer (squamous cell carcinoma) were examined for the presence of HPV-DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using L1-consensus primers. The results indicated that 82 out of 100 (82%) samples were positive for HPV-DNA. Among the positive samples, 50 samples (61%) were typed by dot hybridization technique (DH). HPV-16 was the dominant type (42.68%), followed by HPV-18 (20.73%) and HPV-33 (3.66%). There were double infection of HPV-16 and 18 in 5 (6.1%) samples. None of HPV-6 and 11 were detected in this study. This finding suggests that HPV infection is an important etiologic factor for the development of cervical cancer especially the infection with high risk types, i.e., HPV-16 and 18.
