Genital warts can lead to cervical cancer in women

　　Genital warts are a sexually transmitted infection caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) disease , it is more likely to occur in young and middle-aged men and women who have frequent sexual intercourse and have a history of sexual intercourse. After genital warts are treated, the HPV virus present around the genitals will be reduced or eliminated, but for female For patients, the HPV virus hidden in their cervical epithelium is difficult to detect and remove, causing women to suffer from cervical cancer hidden dangers. There is a large amount of medical material proving that HPV infection has a clear relationship with female cervical cancer.

　　On the one hand, from an etiological perspective, the presence of oncogenic DNA gene fragments in HPV16 and HPV18 hidden in the cervical epithelium leads to the occurrence of cervical cancer. There are many types of HPV viruses that cause genital warts, mainly HPV6, HPV11, etc. However, HPV16 and HPV18 hidden in the cervical epithelium can greatly increase the possibility of cervical cancer. Experiments have shown that when HPV16 or HPV18 DNA fragments are integrated into the genome of cervical epithelial basal cells, oncogenic DNA gene fragments will appear, leading to the possibility of cervical cancer.

　　On the other hand, from clinical Case studies have shown that among women whose cervical epithelium is infected with HPV16 or HPV18, 80% of patients develop moderate to severe atypical hyperplasia of the cervix within two years, increasing the possibility of cervical cancer.

　　After years of clinical observation, there is a great relationship between HPV virus infection and the prognosis of cervical cancer. Taking 10 years as the dividing line, the positive detection rate of HPV is higher in cervical cancer patients who survive within 10 years than those who survive more than 10 years. Female patients with genital warts should be more vigilant and preventive of cervical cancer. Regular physical examinations can help eliminate the risk of cervical cancer or enable early detection and early treatment.
