Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a major cause of cervical cancer. Human Papillomavirus Infections in Dermatovenereology pulls together the diverse disciplines of clinical, molecular biological, socio epidemiological, and immunological research to bridge the gap between the clinical aspects and basic biology of HPV. This volume provides a much-needed overview of the scientific and clinical data of HPV and HPV-associated diseases, exploring opinions on current therapies and diagnostic methods. It critically reviews the most frequently used molecular biologic methods, evaluating their potential in

L’impact de l’infection à papillomavirus (HPV) est considérable. Plus d’une femme sur deux a été exposée aux HPV durant sa vie et 10 % environ feront une infection chronique. Parmi elles, 20 % développeront un cancer du col en l’absence de dépistage. En France, l’infection à HPV à risque provoque 27 000 lésions précancéreuses, 3 400 cancers du col utérin et le décès de 1 000 femmes tous les ans. Le dépistage par frottis réalisé à rythme régulier selon des normes de qualité a entraîné une diminution significative de l’incidence et de la mortalité ces vingt d

This ninetieth volume of the IARC Monographs on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humans considers human papillomaviruses (HPVs), which were evaluated by a previous Working Group (IARC, 1995). The monograph in the present volume incorporates new data that have become available during the past decade. HPVs represent the most common infectious agents that are transmitted sexually throughout the world; the major risk factors are behaviours associated with sexual activity. Although most infections are asymptomatic and are cleared within a period of 2 years, genital HPV infection can lead
