摘要: Abstract Background: Both anal squamous cell cancer and human papilloma virus (HPV) are increased in homosexual men. This study evaluates histology of internal abnormalities a high-risk population immunodeficiency (HIV) seropositive seronegative Methods: Ninety men with the canal (referred from crosssectional 512 men) were evaluated by anoscopy, cytology, directed biopsy. CD4 counts blood HPV types tissue also obtained. Results: Seventy-eight (86%) had HPV-associated abnormalities: discrete warts 39 (43%), wart ring 23 (26%), flat white epithelium 18 (20%). Dysplasia was detected cytology 36% biopsy 92% (27% high grade). High-grade dysplasia equally common HIV-seropositive -seronegative The morphology lesions did not predict presence dysplasia. high- low-risk many specimens. Conclusions: Anal is specimens visible abnormalities. Natural history studies needed to determine clinical significance dysplasia, rates progression cancer, role screening therapy.
