Abstract

common sexually transmitted infection worldwide and poses a significant risk for various cancers in both genders. Methods: This cross-sectional aims to assess the infection rate, HPV type distribution, and associated factors by using real-time PCR techniques on genital samples from patients attending the National hospital of Dermatology and Venereology. Results: Among 1,646 patients tested, 84.7% were positive for HPV, with 40.8% exhibiting a single infection and 59.2% displaying multiple HPV infections. Women accounted for 48.2%, and men for 51.8% of positive cases, with the highest infection rate observed in the 40-49 age group (90.7%). Men showed a higher likelihood of HPV single infection (OR=1.26; 95% CI: 1.02-1.56; p=0.035), while women exhibited a greater propensity for multiple HPV infections (OR=0.80; 95% CI: 0.64-0.98; p=0.035). Geographically, patients from Hanoi exhibited the highest infection rate (56%), followed by the North (39.5%), and the South and Central regions (4.5%). Conclusions: Research findings indicate a high prevalence of HPV infection among patients attending the National hospital of Dermatology and Venereology. Additionally, the research underscores the significance of regular HPV testing as a measure to mitigate the incidence of HPV infection. Keywords: HPV, single infection, multiple infection, National hospital of Dermatology and Venereology.
