Papillomavirus particle
Small, non-enveloped icosahedral particles made up of 360 copies of L1 protein, and 12 copies of L2. Virion is 55nm in diameter. 2
Taxonomy
Family: Papillomaviridae
• 16 genera • Human ones in Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Mu and Nu
• Alpha is the largest and main group but also contains cutaneous viruses(Warts).

Cervical Cancer: Worldwide Prevalence, Incidence, and Mortality Estimates
Cervical cancer is the 2nd most common cancer among women worldwide.
Estimated 530,000 new cases Estimated 274,000 deaths
More than 85% of the global problem occurs in developing countries .

Human papillomavirus (HPV)• Over 100 different HPVs characterised: Classified into
genital/mucosal and cutaneous and designated high-risk or low-risk.
• Irregular Bleeding-May occur between menstrual periods or after sex.
• Vaginal Discharge-Pale-Watery-Brown-Tinged with blood
• Advanced Symptoms-Back or pelvic pain-Difficulty urinating or defecating due to obstruction-Swelling of one or both legs-Fatigue-Weight loss
Signs and Symptoms
18
The screening Test for cervical cancer
• PAP Smear
• VIA= Visual inspection with acetic acid
• HPV testing
19
PAP Smear
20
21
Cytology
22
23
Dysplasia on a Pap Smear
• Subjective
• Require regular training and monitoring.
• Requires high quality control.
• Multiple visits with cytology based are required!.
• Even with the best quality control ,cytology has low sensitivity
(Sensitivity of PAP 53 % )
Cuzick et al, 2006
Limitations of Cytology
24
• VIA: Visual inspection with Acetic Acid
• VILI: Visual inspection with Lugols Iodine
- Both Low tech can be done by nurses
- May need to utilize colposcopy to triage post positive test to rule out cancer

Monsel’s solutionis a chemical cautery agent made of ferric sub-sulphate. It should have a consistency of mustard, and is applied to bleeding sites by transferring it on a cotton swab. It is caustic, more effective than silver nitrate.
Lugol’s is a strong iodine solution that stains normal epithelium dark brown, useful for outlining normal from abnormal epithelium, for defining the borders of a lesion, and for finding vaginal lesions.
Silver nitrate sticks These provide a useful cautery agent that is applied with pressure to bleeding biopsy sites.
27
After the procedure this material
will be expelled naturally: patients
can expect to have a thin coffee-
ground like discharge for up to
several days after the procedure.

Visual Inspection with Ascetic Acid(VIA)
Wright et al 2004
• More sensitive than pap smear
• Negative PV testing provides reassurance of not developing Cervical
Intraepithelial Neoplasia grade 3(CIN3), over the next 5-10 years.
• HPV test is ideally suited to reassure the negative HPV individual and to
increase interval between two subsequent screens.

Saudi Arabia has a population of 9.29 millions women ages 15 years and older who are at risk of developing cervical cancer.

A bivalent (Cervarix) vaccine that protect against HPV-16 and -18.
A quadrivalent (Gardasil) that is effective against HPV-6, -11, -16, and -18 are being widely introduced in western countries.
Should be administered in 3 times over a 6-month period:1st Dose: Now.2nd Dose: 2 months after the first dose. 3rd Dose: 6 months after the first dose.
HPV VACCINES
Two types,

Reactions where the shot was given:
• Pain (about 9 people in 10)
• Redness or swelling (about 1 person in 2)
Other mild reactions:
• Fever of 37.5°C or higher (about 1 person in 8)
• Headache or fatigue (about 1 person in 2)
• Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain (about 1 person in 4)
• Muscle or joint pain (up to 1 person in 2).

Is there any treatment for cervical cancer?
There are many options on treating cervical cancer.
1. Surgery
2. Chemotherapy
3. Radiotherapy
4. Or a combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy
The treatment mainly depends on the size of the tumor or weather the cancer
has spread.

Is the thirteenth most frequent cancer in Saudi women(All Ages).
Cervical cancer is the sixth on the list of the most widespread cancers inSaudi Arabia (15y-44y)
Cervical cancer in Saudi Arabia
El.Mahalli, 2015
99% of Cervical cancer patients would be associated with Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)
Current estimates indicate that every year 152 women are diagnosed with Cervical Cancer and 55 die from the disease.
Cervical cancer in Saudi Arabia
Total of 504 patients
74% present with advanced disease
The overall 3, 5 and 10 years survival patients was 64%, 55% and 40%, respectively
Improvement in overall outcomes will require earlier diagnosis, achievable only through an effective screening program
Manji et al, 199937
Cervical Cancer in Saudi Arabia
Incidence of cervical cancer is low in Saudi Arabia
Rank number 11 between all cancers in female
Every year, 152 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer and 55 die
from the disease. new cervical cancer cases and deaths in 2025 are 309
Account only 2.4 % of all cases
SCR Report 2009 38
Age specific incidence rate for cancer cervix in SA
SCR Report 200939
Cervical cancer in Saudi Arabia One hundred specimensThe mean age 56 ±3.32 y (range20-94 years).
The rate of HPV genotype detection among cervical cancer samples was 95.5%.
HPV-16(63.4%)HPV-18(11.1%)HPV-45 (4.5%)HPV-33 (3.3%)HPV-31, HPV-52, HPV-53, HPV-58, HPV-59, and HPV-66 (2.2%)
Albadawi et al, 2011 40
Cervical cancer in Saudi ArabiaOne hundred ( 82%) were positive for HPV
sequences.
Most common genotypes were HPV-16(71%),
31(7%), and 18, 45, 73 (4% each).
Alsebeih et al, 2013
41
Cervical cancer in Saudi ArabiaA total of 40 cervical samples
HPV infections were found in 43% .
The most prevalent genotypes were HPV 16(30%) HPV 18(8.0%) followed by type HPV 45 (5%)
