MTC 01 8:30 AM > 10:00 AM HPV induced cancers: rapid changes in epidemiology, carcinogenesis and natural history Auditorium I

HPV infection causes about 4.5% of tumours worldwide, mainly in women. Over 25% of cancer are due to HPV in sub-African women. Cervical cancer trends are generally favourable but concerning rises in the incidence of the disease are being seen in countries in which HIV is common or sexual habits are changing without the “umbrella” of cervical screening. Progress are being done in the distinction of the most dangerous HPV infections in different anatomical sites. Ultimately, HPV vaccination and screening may eliminate HPV-associated cancer in both sexes in many world regions.
