    • HIGHLY associated with HPV 16,18 (for high grade) and HPV 6,11 (for low grade)
  3. In the cervix, what is SCC associated with?
    What is Adenocarcinoma associated with?

    How is CIN graded?what is it associated with?
    • -HPV 16 and MICROINVASION
    • -HPV 18

    -graded on how far it moves up in the epithelium. CIN III all the way through. Associated with either HPV6,11 or 16,18 depending on the grade.

    This is SCC
  10. What percent of cervical cancers are Adenocarcinomas?
    What is its precursor lesion?

    • Cervical Cancer
    • Radiation/chemotherapy AND Surgical
  13. what are the ages for the HPV vaccine?
    do we test for low risk HPV? Why?
    • Recommendations (ACIP)
