Data with regard to HPV prevalence and HIV serostatus during two visits were compared. At both visits participants underwent a routine venereological examination and swabs were taken from the perianal region for HPV DNA testing. During both visits HPV types 16, 18, 31, 33 and 52 were, significantly more often detected in HIV positive individuals. Persistence of HPV type 31 at the perianal region was significantly more often seen in HIV- positive MSM, (p=0.036)while the incidence of type 16 may be associatedwith HIV positivity (p=0.059). In HIV- positive MSM significantly more high- risk HPV types were detected at the perianal region.展开更多
