Abstract
Asymptomatic HPV infections were common in both parents, while the genotypeâspecific concordance among spouses was low. In both partners, HPV16 is the dominant genotype. HPV6 was a prevalent HPV genotype in male genitalia. Female risk profile might enhance the transmission of HPV infection to her male partner and increase the genotypeâspecific HPV concordance between the spouses.
