Inclusion
- Inclusion Criteria:
- Using epidemiologic data drawn from a wide range of countries and population groups, investigators have found evidence of HPV in 90% to 95% of cervical cancers. The incidence of HPV in cervical cancer was 79% in our own report. Besides, 91% of high-grade CIN cases and 50% of low-grade CIN cases could be attributed to HPV infection in Taiwanese women. Because these reports for Taiwanese women were published around 10 years ago. It is important to survey and update the incidence of HPV in CIN and cervical cancer patients in Taiwanese women. We will survey the incidence of HPV infection in 500 cervical cancer patients, 100 patients of CIN and 100 normal population patients.
