- Abstract
- Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection represents the primary cause of anogenital premalignant and malignant disease. Regarding the high prevalence of cervical HPV infection and the increasing incidence of HPV associated oropharyngeal cancer in recent years, a significant viral transmission from the cervical to the oral site, possibly depending on the sexual behavior must be considered. The present study aims to determine the prevalence of oral HPV infection in cervical HPV positive and negative women and their sexual partners.
