Lesions that are histologically classified as precursors of cervical cancer, which are often referred to as squamous intraepithelial lesions (SILs), represent a heterogeneous clinical entity that can be associated with many different types of human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and have a variable biologic behavior. Approximately one half of low-grade SILs behave as non-neoplastic, productive viral lesions that frequently regress spontaneously, whereas the other half behave as neoplasms and either persist or progress to a histologically higher grade lesion. Identification of biomarkers that reliably differentiate those low-grade SILs with the properties of a non-neoplastic viral infection from those with the properties of neoplasia would provide a more rational basis for decisions about disease management. Since monoclonality is a hallmark of neoplasia irrespective or organ site, clonal status might represent one such biomarker.
