Human Papillomavirus infection in the South Korean women

한국 여성에서 인유두종 바이러스 감염유형 분석

초록/요약

Since the year of 2001, over 35896 tissue samples were collected from hospitals throughout South Korea. In this study, we investigated the prevalence and distribution of HPV infections in South Korean women. The collected samples were tested for HPV infection (16 genotypes of high-risk HPV and 8 genotypes of low-risk HPV) using an HPV DNA diagnostic kit ( MyGene Co. Seoul, Korea). The prevalence of HPV was 24.1% for all types combined, 12.9% for high-risk, 3.1% for low-risk, 3.9% for multi-infection, and 4.2% for unknown-risk types. In recent years, the major high-risk HPV genotypes were numbers16, 58, 53, 52, and 18 in South Korean women and their prevalence in total HPV infection were 19.30 %, 11.25 %, 8.35 %, 7.95 %, and 7.65%, respectively. The major low-risk HPV genotypes were 70, 54, 6, and 11 in South Korean women and their prevalence in total HPV infection were 7.85 %, 4.00 %, 3.00 % and 1.70 %, respectively. An epidemiological study of HPV infections in South Korean female population revealed a distinct pattern of infection. Twenty-four different genotypes were evaluated; of which genotypes number 16 and 58 were the major high-risk HPV genotypes. In addition, a few rare genotypes (number 53 and 52) were shown to be prevalent in South Korea, which suggests that the future targets for HPV protection and management in South Korea are different than those of the other countries. Further preventive and therapeutic steps to manage HPV infections in South Korea should consider the changing HPV environment.
