Zusammenfassung

Es gilt heute als gesichert, dass nahezu alle Fälle von Zervixkarzinomen durch persistierende Infektionen mit sog. „Hoch-Risiko“ humanen Papillomviren (HPV) verursacht werden, insbesondere durch die Typen HPV16 und HPV18 (ca. 70%). Darüber hinaus sind diese HPV-Typen auch für einen Teil anderer Karzinome wie Vulva-, Vaginal-, Anal-, Penis- und Oropharynxkarzinome verantwortlich. Diese Erkenntnis impliziert, dass man die Entwicklung dieser Karzinome unterbinden kann, wenn ein Großteil der verursachenden Infektionen verhindert werden kann.

Abstract

It is well accepted today that almost all cases of carcinoma of the cervix are caused by persistent infections with high-risk human papilloma viruses (HPV), especially through types HPV16 and HPV18 (ca. 70%). These same types are also responsible for some carcinomas of the vulva, anus, penis and oropharynx. This knowledge indicates that it should be possible to prevent these carcinomas if a majority of the causstive HPV infections can be prevented.
