Context.—Cervical screening in the United States increasingly involves newer US Food and Drug Administration–approved cytologic methods and adjunctive high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) DNA testing. Objective.—To document cervical screening test performance preceding histopathologic cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2/3 diagnoses. Design.—Preceding screening test results with computer-imaged, liquid-based cytology (LBC) and hrHPV results were analyzed for 2827 patients with histopathologic CIN 2/3 diagnoses. Results.—Of 2827 patients with CIN 2/3 diagnoses, 2074 (73.4%) had system LBC findings within 4 months of CIN 2/3 diagnoses: high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (n = 862; 41.6%), low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (n = 464; 22.4%), atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (n = 445; 21.5%), atypical squamous cells, cannot exclude high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (n = 288; 13.9%), and atypical glandular cells/adenocarcinoma in situ (n = 15; 0.7%). Of the 2827 patients, 1488 (52.6%) also had earlier system LBC results at more than 4 months to 3 years before CIN 2/3 diagnoses: one or more abnormal LBC results (n = 978; 65.7%), one or more negative LBC results (n = 911; 61.2%), both abnormal and negative LBC (n = 401; 26.9%). Of 807 patients with hrHPV cotest results within 4 months of CIN 2/3 diagnoses, 786 (97.4%) had hrHPV+ results. Of 454 patients who also had earlier hrHPV results at more than 4 months to 3 years before CIN 2/3 diagnoses: 377 (83.0%) had one or more hrHPV+ result, 110 (24.2%) had one or more hrHPV− result, and 33 (7.3%) had both positive and negative HPV results. Conclusion.—Patients with histopathologic CIN 2/3 had recent abnormal LBC results, most often, high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions. Among cotested patients, 97.4% (786 of 807) tested hrHPV+. However, a significant number of patients tested during an extended period of several years had earlier negative Papanicolaou or negative HPV test results, suggesting the recent development of some CIN 2/3 lesions and supporting the value of cotesting for enhanced detection of other developing, small, inaccessible, or nondiagnostic precursor lesions.

Abstract Context.—Although human papillomavirus (HPV) testing may aid in managing low-grade abnormality on screening cervical cytology, patient compliance with repeat testing programs requires consideration. Objectives.—To determine effectiveness and costs of repeated Papanicolaou (Pap) test and oncogenic HPV testing for detecting cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or 3. Design.—We conducted a randomized controlled trial of combined Pap test and cervical HPV testing by Hybrid Capture 1 test compared with Pap test alone; tests were performed every 6 months for up to 2 years. The study end point was colposcopic examination performed on all women at 2 years, or earlier if an HPV test was positive or if a Pap test showed high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. Setting.—Sixty-six community family practices. Participants.—Two hundred fifty-seven women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance or low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion on screening cervical cytology. Main Outcome Measures.—Detection of histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or 3, fully allocated costs, and loss to follow-up. Results.—Combined Pap test and HPV testing detected 11 (100%) of 11 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3, whereas Pap test alone detected 7 (63.6%) of these 11 cases (P = .14); corresponding specificities were 39 (46.4%) of 84 and 45 (71.4%) of 63 (P = .005). The cost-effectiveness ratio was Can $4456 per additional case of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. Sixty-nine (26.8%) of the 257 women (24.6% combined group vs 29.1% Pap test only group, P = .41) defaulted from testing or from colposcopy when referred with an abnormal result. Conclusions.—Combined testing was more costly but may detect more cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 than Pap test alone. However, poor adherence limits usefulness of a management strategy that requires repeated follow-up.

Abstract Context.—Data on cytologic screening and follow-up disproportionately reflect findings from frequently screened younger women, and data from screened women 50 years and older using newer screening technologies remain limited. Objective.—To better understand the utility of adjunctive high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing for disease risk stratification in women 50 years and older with a range of liquid-based cytology, abnormal, squamous cell Papanicolaou test results. Design.—Liquid-based cytology cases interpreted as high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL); low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL); atypical squamous cells, cannot exclude high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (ASC-H); and atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) at Magee-Womens Hospital (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) were retrospectively identified for a 36-month period between July 1, 2005, and June 30, 2008, from women 50 years and older who also had hrHPV DNA test results. Histopathologic follow-up diagnoses were analyzed. Results.—During the study period, 4855 women 50 years and older had HSIL, LSIL, ASC-H, or ASC-US Papanicolaou test results and hrHPV testing. In 89.3% of HSIL cases, 71.0% of LSIL cases, 38.9% of ASC-H cases, and 14.2% of ASC-US cases, hrHPV test results were positive. The positive predictive value of a positive hrHPV test for histopathologic cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3+ detection was 90.5% with HSIL, 15% with ASC-H, 9.8% with LSIL, and 3.2% with ASC-US. A negative hrHPV test result had a 100% negative predictive value for histopathologic cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3+ in both LSIL and ASC-H cases. Conclusions.—In women 50 years and older, a positive hrHPV test result significantly increased the likelihood of follow-up histopathologic diagnoses of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 /3+ in patients with HSIL, LSIL, and ASC-H Papanicolaou test results compared with women with negative hrHPV test results. No cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3+ diagnoses were documented in women 50 years and older with LSIL or ASC-H Papanicolaou test results and negative hrHPV test results.

Kanker serviks merupakan keganasan pada serviks. Jenis kanker tersebut terjadi pada perempuan dan masih menjadi masalah di Indonesia. Indonesia merupakan negara urutan ke 4 di Asia Tenggara dengan insiden kanker serviks terbesar setelah Kamboja, Myanmar dan Thailand. Berdasar data statistik tahun 2012, tingkat insidensi (incidence rate) kanker serviks di Indonesia 17 per 100.000 perempuan per tahun.(1) Telah terbukti bahwa penyebab primer terjadinya kanker serviks yaitu virus papilloma atau yang lebih dikenal dengan istilah “human papillomavirus (HPV)”. Terdapat beberapa jenis serotype HPV, tetapi tidak semua jenis serotype bersifat progesif menjadikan kanker serviks. Salah satu serotype yang bersifat progesif menjadikan kanker serviks yaitu HPV serotype 16. HPV serotype 16 mampu mengubah sel epitel squamosa serviks (cervical-squamous-epithelial cells=CSEC) normal menjadi lesi intraepitelial squamosa tingkat rendah (low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion=LSIL) atau neoplasia intraepitel serviks (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia=CIN) 1. Selanjutnya, LSIL atau CIN 1 berkembang menjadi lesi intraepitelial squamosa tingkat tinggi (high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion=HSIL) atau CIN 2, dan akhirnya menjadi kanker serviks yang invasif (invasive cervical cancer=CIN3).(2)

Abstract Context.—Reflex human papillomavirus (HPV) testing has been designated in consensus guidelines as “preferred” for women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) liquid-based cytology (LBC) results, and colposcopy is currently recommended for patients with HPV-positive ASC-US results. Data from large clinical practices using newer screening methods and current cytology terminology are limited. Objectives.—We analyzed data from patients with ASC-US LBC and positive HPV test results. We also assessed the impact of the presence or absence of an endocervical cell/ transformation zone sample (EC/TZS) on biopsy diagnoses. Design.—The information system of a large women's hospital serving an older-than-average population was searched over a 21-month period between July 1, 2005, and March 31, 2007, for HPV-positive cases interpreted as ASC-US (Bethesda System 2001) using computer-imaged LBC. Histologic diagnoses, patient ages, and presence or absence of an EC/TZS were analyzed. The average follow-up period was 7.5 months. Results.—Among 4273 women with HPV-positive ASC-US results, the cumulative cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or 3 (CIN 2/3) and CIN 1 rates for 2192 women with available biopsies were 5.1% and 43.6%, respectively. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 and CIN 1 rates for women with HPV-positive ASC-US results were not significantly different for women with and without an EC/TZS. Conclusions.—The risk of CIN 2/3 in the study population was significantly lower than reported in widely cited trial data. Neither presence nor absence of an EC/TZS, nor the age of the patient, had a statistically significant impact on the likelihood of biopsy diagnoses of CIN 2/3 and CIN 1 for patients with HPV-positive ASC-US test results.

The association between human papillomavirus 31 (HPV31) DNA loads and the risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades 2 and 3 (CIN2–3) was evaluated among women enrolled in the atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) and low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) triage study (ALTS), who were monitored semiannually over 2 years and who had HPV31 infections detected at ≥1 visit. HPV31 DNA loads in the first HPV31-positive samples and in a random set of the last positive samples from women with ≥2 HPV31-positive visits were measured by a real-time PCR assay. CIN2–3 was histologically confirmed at the same time as the first detection of HPV31 for 88 (16.6%) of 530 women. After adjustment for HPV31 lineages, coinfection with other oncogenic types, and the timing of the first positive detection, the odds ratio (OR) per 1-log-unit increase in viral loads for the risk of a concurrent diagnosis of CIN2–3 was 1.5 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2 to 1.9). Of 373 women without CIN2–3 at the first positive visit who had ≥1 later visit, 44 had subsequent diagnoses of CIN2–3. The initial viral loads were associated with CIN2–3 diagnosed within 6 months after the first positive visit (adjusted OR, 1.5 [95% CI, 1.0 to 2.4]) but were unrelated to CIN2–3 diagnosed later. For a random set of 49 women who were tested for viral loads at the first and last positive visits, changes in viral loads were upward and downward among women with and without follow-up CIN2–3 diagnoses, respectively, although the difference was not statistically significant. Results suggest that HPV31 DNA load levels at the first positive visit signal a short-term but not long-term risk of CIN2–3.
