Genital human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is the sexually transmitted disease. HPV induces the proliferation of epithelial cells. In the areas of viral inclusions vulvovaginal warts, papillomas and condylomas are developing. Some serotypes of HPV are known as a significant risk factor of cervical cancer. The aim of our study was to detect the conditions of oxidation processes in vaginal and cervical tissues in patients with HPV infection. According to our results, in patients with HPV, intensification of production of reactive forms of nitrogen and oxygen in vaginal and cervical tissues takes place which is the result of activation of leukocytes, other phagocyte cells and chaotic flow of blood in damaged tissue, as well as interchanging periods of hypoxia and reperfusion.

Importance: As US health care systems shift to human papillomavirus (HPV)-based cervical cancer screening, more patients are receiving positive high-risk non-16/18 genotype HPV results and negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy (NILM) cytological findings. Risk-based management guidelines recommend 2 consecutive negative annual results to return to routine screening.

Verruca vulgaris is a cutaneous infection predominantly caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) type 1, 2, and 4. In immunocompromised individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, HPV leads to a higher prevalence of infections and also has a greater likelihood of being infected with atypical types such as genital-associated HPV in extragenital sites. This case report describes a 48-year-old male patient who presented with skin-colored verrucous papules on the hands and feet, with no evidence of genital lesions.
