Abstract

Background/aim: Tobacco use is a recognized cofactor risk for cervical cancer induced by high-risk Human Papilloma Virus (HR-HPV). This study aimed to evaluate the specific influence of tobacco use on colposcopic examination results in women infected by HR-HPV.

Patients and methods: HR-HPV-positive women undergoing a loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LLETZ) after colposcopic examination were considered for this study. A total of 819 patients from a regional screening program were included, of whom 320 were smokers and 499 non-smokers.

Results: Smokers were significantly younger (41.1 vs. 43.8, p<0.01), more frequently exhibited grade II colposcopic changes (63.9% vs. 53.3%, p<0.05), had worse histopathological outcomes (CIN2+: 75.7% vs. 67.9%, p<0.05; CIN3+: 51.4% vs. 44.0%, p<0.05), and higher rates of affected surgical margins, with borderline significance (22.6% vs. 17.8%, p=0.055). While no significant differences in viral clearance were observed at six months, smokers showed a trend toward worse outcomes at two years (p=0.07).

Conclusion: Smoking in any amount is associated with worse colposcopic and histopathological findings, and this occurs at younger ages.

阴道镜检查的改变在吸烟者中更常见,并且出现在更年轻的年龄。
背景/目的:吸烟是公认的高危人乳头瘤病毒(HR-HPV)诱发宫颈癌的辅助危险因素。本研究旨在评估吸烟对HR-HPV感染妇女阴道镜检查结果的具体影响。患者和方法:本研究考虑了在阴道镜检查后接受环电切手术(LLETZ)的hr - hpv阳性妇女。来自区域筛查项目的819例患者被纳入研究,其中320例为吸烟者,499例为非吸烟者。结果:吸烟者明显年轻化(41.1 vs 43.8)。53.3%, pv。67.9%, pv。44.0%, pv。17.8%, p = 0.055)。虽然在六个月时观察到的病毒清除率没有显着差异,但吸烟者在两年后的结果有恶化的趋势(p=0.07)。结论:任何数量的吸烟都与更差的阴道镜检查和组织病理学结果相关,而且这种情况发生在更年轻的年龄。
