Introduction
HPV high-risk type 82 positive indicates infection with a high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) that may lead to cervical cancer. Persistent infection with high-risk HPV types can cause abnormal proliferation of epithelial and mucosal cells at the affected site, resulting in lesions of squamous cells and triggering cervical cancer, which may lead to symptoms such as abdominal pain and irregular vaginal bleeding in patients.
HPV high-risk type 82 positive indicates infection with a high-risk strain of human papillomavirus (HPV), which may lead to cervical cancer.
Prolonged infection with high-risk HPV types can cause abnormal proliferation of epithelial and mucosal cells in affected areas, resulting in lesions of squamous cells and triggering cervical cancer. This may lead to symptoms such as abdominal pain and irregular vaginal bleeding. The prognosis for this condition is poor, significantly affecting both quality of life and life expectancy. Once diagnosed, timely treatment is essential. Treatment typically involves surgery, followed by chemotherapy or radiotherapy depending on the specific circumstances. If HPV high-risk type 82 is detected but cervical cancer has not yet developed, medication under medical guidance may be recommended, such as interferon gel, ribavirin tablets, or famciclovir tablets.
After confirming HPV infection, patients should promptly seek standardized medical care at a hospital to prevent disease progression.
