## Background: Infection by high-risk human papillomavirus (hpv) plays a role in the evolution of cervical carcinoma. cellular atypia and consecutive dna content alterations in cytologic samples are consequences of a preexisting viral infection. ## Methods: We analyzed the frequency and associati

The APTIMA V R HPV Assay (AHPV) allows detection of 14 high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) RNA types in cervical specimens. Until present, the assay has been compared to HPV DNA tests only in triage settings. Herein, we compare AHPV with a DNA assay (Hybrid Capture V R 2; HC2) and liquid-based cyto
## Abstract The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was applied for the detection of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection, in samples obtained from the uterine cervices of 202 asymptomatic women with normal cytology in Northern Greece. About 41.8% of the women with microscopically and cytologically no
This study was based on 358 cases with abnormal smears referred for colposcopy and HPV DNA testing. We analysed: 1) the frequency of different grades of cyto-and histopathologic findings; 2) the frequency and relative amount of HPV DNA with the hybrid capture assay (HCA) in swabs, and the frequency
