Abstract

Infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV) is a significant risk factor for malignancy. The identification of particular HPV types is important for identifying patients with premalignant lesions who are at risk of progression to malignancy and for epidemiological studies. We present data on the prevalence of HPV infection in the upper respiratory tract of healthy children.
