SARDUY NAPOLES, Miguel R.. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia: Preamble of cervicouterine cancer. Rev Cubana Obstet Ginecol [online]. 2008, vol.34, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3062.
Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia is a lesion considered as the preamble of cervicouterine cancer. HPV infection in the genital apparatus, mainly some subtypes called oncogenic, plays an important role in the appearance of some intraepithelial lesions and in its possible evolution to invasive cancer in these localizations. There is a significant group of risk factors or cofactors that associated with HPV infection may produce these cellular changes in the cervix. These risk factors are analyzed in the present article, and the participation of both members of the couple in the HPV infection is taken into consideration. Some conservative therapeutic modalities used to treat CIN are stressed.
