title: Anogenital intraepithelial lesions in HIV positive patients. Report of 3 cases with 3-year follow-up.
abstract: Three cases of HIV-positive immunocompromised women, complicated by anogenital intraepithelial lesions are presented in the present paper. Two patients, aged 42 and 33, had a combination of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN 3) and anal intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (AIN 2). The other one, aged 26, presented an association of CIN 2 and AIN 1. All lesions were HPV-associated and proved by colposcopically-guided biopsies.
