Abstract

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most prevalent sexually transmitted infection worldwide and is strongly linked to cancers at multiple anatomic sites in both men and women. This chapter describes HPV structure, molecular biology, transmission, and immune response; examines the epidemiology of cervical, anal and oropharyngeal cancers; discusses key risk factors associated with acquisition and persistence of HPV infection, including HIV-coinfection; and highlights prevention and treatment approaches to invasive cervical, anal, and oropharyngeal HPV-related neoplasms. Increasing HPV vaccination globally among both females and males is showing promise in decreasing the global burden of HPV-associated malignancy.
