ABSTRACT
Coinfection with multiple high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) is frequently observed in cervical specimens; however, the clinical significance of concomitant multiple hrHPV infections is poorly understood, and the published results remain inconsistent. A retrospective study at a tertiary care institution was performed, evaluating Tellgenplex human papillomavirus (HPV) 27 genotyping or YanengBio HPV 23 genotyping results and immediate cervical histologic diagnosis (within 6 months after HPV genotyping), between November 2015 and October 2022. Among 49,299 cases with hrHPV genotyping and histologic diagnosis, 24,361 cases were diagnosed as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and squamous cell carcinoma. Among women with cervical squamous lesions, 86.5% (21,070/24,361) had hrHPV infections, and concomitant multiple hrHPV infections accounted for 24.7% of hrHPV-positive cases (5210/21,070). The hrHPV-positive rates in these cervical squamous lesions increased progressively with disease severity; however, the percentages of concomitant multiple hrHPV infection rates among hrHPV-positive cases decreased significantly with increasing degree of squamous abnormalities. There was no increased detection rate of CIN3+ (CIN3 and squamous cell carcinoma) in cases with concomitant 2 or 3 hrHPV genotype infections when compared with those with corresponding single hrHPV infections. Conversely, some combinations of multiple hrHPV infections demonstrated a decrease in the detection rates of CIN3+ lesions. In this large cohort, our results demonstrated that multiple hrHPV infections do not carry an increased risk for developing CIN3+ lesions when compared to the corresponding single-genotype infection. The reduced risk of CIN3+ in women infected with some combinations of hrHPV genotypes compared to those with single-genotype infections supports the concept of intergenotypic competition of hrHPV genotypes in cervical squamous lesions.
