Association Between Salivary and Cervical Human Papillomavirus in Women With a History of Oral Sex
Listen to this summary
This study aimed to investigate the presence of HPV DNA in the saliva of Iranian women with confirmed genital HPV infection and a history of oral-genital contact. The results showed that 22.1% of participants had detectable salivary HPV, with a higher prevalence of high-risk genotypes among those with concurrent oral and genital infections. However, the clinical significance of these findings remains unclear, and the authors suggest that further research is needed before routine oral HPV screening can be recommended.
