Letter to the editor: “A population-based study of cervical cytology findings and human papillomavirus infection in a suburban area of Thailand”

摘要

In the latest edition of Gynecologic Oncology Reports, we read a relevant article “A population-based study of cervical cytology findings and human papillomavirus infection in a suburban area of Thailand” (Phoolcharoen et al., 2017). We agree with the authors, because to know the distribution of HPV's genotype in Thailand population is important to validate the future use of HPV's vaccines and to have a better understanding of the burden of the disease in that population so the methods of prevention in cervical cancer can be efficiently administered to the population at risk.
