Current research status of oral human papillomavirus(HPV)infection
Epidemiologic evidences have demonstrated that the oral cavity is a reservoir for human papillomavirus(HPV).Multiple transmission routes including horizontal transmission and vertical transmission increase the incidence of oral HPV infection.Low-risk HPV may cause benign lesions of the oral mucosal,and persistent infection with high-risk HPV is an important risk factor for the devel-opment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.At present,the research on oral HPV infection in China is not in-depth,and Chi-nese people have insufficient understanding of relevant knowledge,which is not conducive to the development of related disease preven-tion and treatment.In this context,this article reviews the current research status of oral HPV infection,in order to provide reference for the prevention and treatment of oral HPV infection in China.
