TI  - Importance of Cuff Cytology and Human Papillomavirus Screening, Especially in Patients with Autoimmune Disorders
AB  - ABS TRACT This article aims to report the results of four cases of human papillomavirus (HPV)positivity and abnormal cuff smear. A hysterectomy was performed in this study to eliminate precancerous cervical lesion in one patient and uterine myoma in another. Subsequent follow-up of thepatients revealed HPV DNA positivity in cuff cytology, even though both the patients tested negative for HPV prior to hysterectomy. Cuff cytology and HPV DNA screening, therefore, seem to beimportant in dicey and benign cases, especially occurring together with autoimmune disorders.HPV type 16 was found to be the most frequent subtype (75%) in this study.
