Key Points

This research aims to compare the detection rates of HPV in cervicovaginal secretions and tissue samples.
Used test kits for hr-HPV DNA detection in cervicovaginal secretions.
Performed tissue extraction from FFPE samples.
Compared detection rates between both methods.
Detection rate of hr-HPV in cervicovaginal secretions is similar to that of tissue extraction.
Serotypes 16 and 18 are the most prevalent in both sample types.
Confirms the reliability of cervicovaginal secretion as a screening tool.

Abstract

The hr-HPV DNA detection rate on cervicovaginal secretion using the test kit is similar to that of tissue extraction FFPE, with serotypes 16 and 18 being predominant. This finding further confirms the reliability of the use of the HPV test kit on cervicovaginal secretion as a screening tool for premalignant and malignant lesions of the cervix.
