PALAORO, Luis Alberto; ROCHER, Adriana Esther y DE TORRES, Ramón. The inflammatory genital reaction in the detection of alterations by human papilloma virus. Acta bioquím. clín. latinoam. [online]. 2013, vol.47, n.3. ISSN 0325-2957.
Vaginal dysfunction (DV) (vaginosis/vaginitis) is the generic syndrome of major prevalence, reaching 50% of all women in fertile age (symptomatic and asymptomatic). The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is detected in 30-40% of women in fertile age (symptomatic and asymptomatic) and is associated to pre-neoplastic lesions and invading carcinoma of the uterine cervix. The diagnosis for the symptoms of DV and the alterations induced by HPV are inefficient and at present, the morphology (macroscopic and microscopic) is the standard gold, but it needs better classification. The Study of the Vaginal Content is the test of major request after urocultives in bacteriological laboratories. BACOVA establishes the procedure for the diagnosis of vaginosis/vaginitis and ERIGE increases the predictive value of cells that give the alarm on epithelial alterations. From 2007 to the present sensitivity in the detection of abnormal exfoliated cells from vagina and uterine cervix was evaluated during the BACOVA - ERIGE, (Giemsa's stain) workshops, 99% of the participants coincided with the detection of koilocytes. BACOVA/ERIGE does not replace the Papanicolaou by any means, but it can and must be performed in peripheral laboratories, where apart from the diagnosis of vaginosis/vaginitis with 100% of predictive value, it is possible to increase the detection of precocious proliferative changes of the squamous epithelium.
