| Abstract | Este estudo transversal de carater analitico teve por objetivo avaliar a frequencia da infeccao pelo Papilomavirus humano (HPV) e Chlamydia trachomatis, bem como de alteracoes citopatologicas e colposcopicas em um grupo de 96 gestantes (51 HIV soropositivas e 45 HIV soronegativas) no periodo de abril de 2006 a maio de 2007. Todas responderam a questionario padrao seguido de atendimento ginecologico. Foram coletadas amostras da cervice uterina para pesquisa de HPV e C. trachomatis pela tecnica de Captura de Hibrido (CH II®) para a colpocitologia oncotica e, por fim, realizou-se o exame colposcopico. Os dados foram armazenados e analisados no Epi Info, versao 6.04 e SPSS versao 9.0. Utilizou-se o teste do Qui-quadrado considerando o valor de 5 por cento (p A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in order to identify the frequency of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection, Chlamydia trachomatis, colposcopic and cytological findings in a group of 96 pregnant women (51 HIV positive and 45 HIV negative) from April 2006 to May 2007. All patients went through a standard questionnaire, followed by gynecological examination. Samples were collected for HPV survey and C. trachomatis by the Hybrid Capture II technique for oncotic colpocytology (Papanicolaou), followed by colposcopy. Data were stored and analyzed using Epi Info, version 6.04 and SPSS version 9.0. For statistical analysis the chi-square test were used with level of significance set at 5 percent. Among the HIV positive pregnant women 62.7 percent were positive for HPV and 17.6 percent were positive for C. trachomatis. In contrast, for HIV negative pregnant women 17.8 percent and 4.4 percent were positive for HPV and C. trachomatis, respectively. The Pap smear identified a larger amount of low grade squamous intraepithelial lesions in both groups, 21.6 percent in HIV positive pregnant women and 13.3 percent in HIV negative pregnant women. The aceto white epithelium was the most frequent colposcopy abnormality. In conclusion, the infection by HPV and C. trachomatis is more common in pregnant women infected with HIV, characterizing, thus, based on current knowledge, a population that is more susceptible to cervical cancer. |
