BACKGROUND: Female recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are at high risk of developing human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated lesions and (pre)cancer. We describe the results of a cervical cancer screening program in these women.
METHODS: From 2010 to 2022, 70 female recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in our institution entered a standardized protocol of gynecological evaluation. HPV testing, Papanicolaou smear, and thorough gynecological examinations were conducted in all the women.
RESULTS: The cumulative prevalence of HPV infection was 21.4% (15/70). Ten of 70 women (14.3%) had a positive HPV test result in the first gynecological evaluation and 5 additional women (7.1%) became positive during follow-up. Thirteen women (18.5%) presented cytohistological lesions (3 high-grade lesions and 10 low-grade lesions). Twenty-nine women (41.4%) showed HPV-negative reactive atypical abnormalities related to the conditioning treatment, which closely mimicked HPV-associated lesions, which spontaneously disappeared during follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS: Gynecological evaluation should be maintained over time, as a significant proportion of these women may become HPV positive during follow-up. Reactive benign, atypical changes related to the treatment, which closely mimic HPV-associated lesions, are a frequent finding in these women. HPV testing is a key tool for the evaluation of these patients, as it allows for identifying women at risk and excluding cytological mimickers.
