Abstract

This survey of 931 cervical specimens in women from Datong, China indicates that the overall human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence was 18.6%, and the most prevalent high-risk HPV types were 16, 58, 18, 52 and 33. This study demonstrates the epidemiology of HPV infection in Datong and the potential impact of vaccination in this region.
