Abstract
Human papillomavirus infection is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections in young women, and may lead to clinical sequelae such as anogenital condylomata and cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Recent data on the biology and natural history of HPV infection in adolescents will have important implications for the development of adolescent-specific protocols for cervical cancer screening and for follow-up of abnormal cytology.
