RESUMEN
La infección por VPH constituye un grave problema de salud pública a nivel mundial. Aunque las investigaciones sobre VPH han girado en torno del diagnóstico, el tratamiento y la prevención de las infecciones en las mujeres, se ha reportado que la mayor parte de los estudiantes universitarios desconoce con certeza la clínica, manejo y tratamiento de esta infección y prácticas de prevención contra el VPH e, incluso, la mayoría de las universitarias nunca se realizado la prueba de Papanicolaou. Se evaluaron los factores de riesgo de infección por VPH (virus del papiloma humano) en estudiantes universitarios de Guayaquil. El estudio reveló que la prevalencia de infección por VPH en los estudiantes que reportaron no poseer información sobre la infección por VPH fue significativamente mayor ya que permanecen en un estado de baja percepción de riesgo de contagio(AU)
