Journal ArticleDOI

The epidemiology of genital human papillomavirus infection.

TL;DR: Persistent infection with HR-HPVs is now unequivocally established as a necessary cause of cervical cancer and is likely to be responsible for a substantial proportion of other anogenital neoplasms and upper aero-digestive tract cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
