pubmed:abstractText
Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is one of the most frequently observed sexually-transmitted diseases (10-60% of the general population). In pregnant women, as well as accelerating the evolution of dysplasia to cervical cancer, the infection may be transmitted to the fetus during gestation or at the time of birth. Children who have been infected at birth may develop laryngeal papillomatosis during the first 5 years of life that may, in some cases, spread to the point of causing aphonia or severe respiratory obstruction. There is also the risk, although it is very low, of a carcinomatous degeneration of the larynx in these subjects during adulthood. The hypothesis of the present study was to verify the prevalence of HPV infection in a population of pregnant women and the prevalence of maternal-fetal transmission.
