Cervical cancer and low-risk HPV; a case report.
A case of cervical cancer in a 32-year-old woman with a genotype 6 HPV genital infection that developed from a cervical low-grade SIL after a LLETZ procedure two years before is presented. This case obliges us to reconsider both the benign nature of low-grade lesions and the potentially good prognosis of low-risk HPV infection.
