title: [Therapeutic plans for the treatment of HPV infections by systemic administration of interferon-alpha. Experience with preneoplastic pathology of the uterine cervix associated with viral cytopathic effects].
abstract: The principal action of IFN is anti-viral, rather than antiproliferative and immunomodulatory. All three actions are required to resolve pre-neoplastic uterine cervix pathologies, above all if they are at an early stage or associated with viral cytopathic effects.
