High-risk HPV infections can lead to precancerous lesions of the cervix.<\/li>\n<li>Persistent high-risk HPV virus infections can lead to cervical, vulvar, vaginal, penile, anal, and oral cavity cancers.<\/li>\n<li>The diagnosis of HPV infection can be made by detecting abnormal findings in a simple Pap smear. A definitive diagnosis of HPV is made by performing HPV DNA testing and typing.<\/li>\n<li>There is no specific treatment for HPV infection. Treatment is targeted towards lesions.
