Virus del Papiloma humano Human Papilloma virus (HPV)

Abstract

Con el objetivo de actualizar la información existente sobre el Virus del Papiloma Humano (VPH) se realizó una revisión bibliográfica de artículos basados en la evidencia de nivel I-II. Fundamentalmente fueron revisados los publicados en la biblioteca Cochrane, Dynamed, Evidence-Based Medicine Updates, New England Journal of Medicine, J Clinical Oncology, Medscape, PubMed, artículos de la Agencia Internacional del Cáncer de Francia, y HPV Today, en inglés, francés, portugués o español, de los últimos 5 años, y se hace referencia a artículos originales de importancia de años anteriores. Se revisaron los siguientes aspectos: Definiciones, epidemiología, etiología: Virus del Papiloma Humano, factores de riesgo, clínica de la infección por el VPH, implicación clínica, pesquisaje de masas, tratamiento, prevención primaria y secundaria; y problemas sociales derivados. La infección por el VPH es sexualmente transmitida, por lo tanto es prevenible, y puede ser curable. Es un virus ADN que necesita de un epitelio para su replicación y completar su ciclo vital. La expresión de sus genes constituyentes varía dentro del epitelio, y de una parte del epitelio a otra, dependiendo del tipo de lesión. Se ha detectado la infección desde la infancia, aún sin relaciones sexuales, para llegar a un clímax alrededor de los 30 años, para luego decrecer. Las alternativas actuales son la prevención primaria mediante el uso de anticonceptivos de barrera, el uso de las vacunas profilácticas, y después que está instaurada la infección las vacunas terapéuticas que se están desarrollando. En todos los aspectos se pueden detectar problemas sociales, desde el diagnóstico con el peso de ansiedad, la carga social que proporciona la infección y las consecuencias que de ella derivan.Aimed at updating the current information on Human Papillomavirus (HPV) evidence-based articles and papers about levels I-II were reviewed. The articles and papers browsed on line were published in: Cochrane, Dynamed, Evidence-based Medicine Update, New England Journal of Medicine, J Clinical Oncology, Medscape, PubMed, IARC and Human Papilloma Virus Today, in English, French, Portuguese or Spanish, from the last 5 years; taking also as reference important original articles from previous years. Terms used for the search were: definitions, epidemiology, etiology, HPV, risk factors, clinical features of the HPV infection, clinical implications, mass screening, treatment, primary/secondary prevention and social repercussion. HPV is a sexually-transmitted infection; thus it is preventable and curable. HPV is a DNA virus needing for an epithelium for its replication and to accomplish its vital cycle. The expression of the genes varies inside the epithelial tissue, and from one part of it to the other depending on the type of lesion. Infection is detected from the childhood, even without sexual intercourse, reaching a climax around 30 years old, and then decreasing. The current alternatives are: the primary prevention by means of the use of barrier methods of contraception and the prophylactic vaccines; mass screening and developing-therapeutic vaccines are used after the infection. In every step of the diagnosis and treatment of the disease social problems may arise from the anxiety burden, the infection and its consequences. A discussion about all these aspects was carried out.
