Abstract
A positive reflex HPV16/18 genotyping result predicts a significantly higher risk of CIN3/VAIN3 than a negative reflex 16/18 HPV result, supporting the need for an immediate colposcopy evaluation in these patients. For women with a negative reflex HPV16/18 genotyping result, an annual HPV/Pap cytology co-testing is a reasonable follow-up to predict non-16/18 HPV-associated CIN3/VAIN3.
