Overview
Genital HPV infection is very common, with estimates suggesting that more than 50% of women will become infected with one or more of the sexually transmitted HPV types at some point during adulthood.[1]
Epidemiology
Cutaneous warts
- Widespread in general population
- Incidence of common warts is more than plantar or flat warts
Genital warts
- Worldwide, 90% of genital warts is caused by the HPV 6 and 11[2]
- Prevalence of genital warts is 1% in USA as compared to 10% in Scandinavian countries
- In USA, the incidence of genital warts has slightly increased in the year 2013
HPV associated cancers
- In USA, the incidence of HPV associated cancer is 38,793 each year (data 2008-2012)[3]
- Cervical cancer
- Oropharyngeal cancer
- Incidence of oropharyngeal cancer associated with HPV is showing an increasing trend in USA(23297039)(21969503)
- 70% of oropharyngeal cancers are associated with HPV[3]
- Anal cancer
- In USA, the incidence of anal cancer has increased in the last three decades(23297039)((19293308)(19156144)(23042932)
- There is increased incidence among HIV positive individuals and incidence has not shown a decline after the advent of antiretroviral therapy.(7062503)
- Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis
- Rare with rates of about 2 cases per 100,000 children in the United States[4]
- Common in children born to females having active genital warts at the time of vaginal delivery
Information from the AMA
According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (Dunne, Eileen F. et al, 2007) the prevalence of HPV infection among females in the United States is as follows:[5]
- 24.5% prevalence of HPV among females 14 to 19 years old
- 44.8% prevalence of HPV among females 20 to 24 years old
- 27.4% prevalence of HPV among females 25 to 29 years old
- 27.5% prevalence of HPV among females 30 to 39 years old
- 25.2% prevalence of HPV among females 40 to 49 years old
- 19.6% prevalence of HPV among females 50 to 59 years old
Demographics
Following demographic factors may affect the incidence and prevalence of HPV infection:
Age
Cutaneous warts
- More common in children aged 12-16 yrs of age[6] (2599836)
- 10% of children and 3.5% of adults are affected, worldwide
Genital warts
- Incidence of genital HPV infection increases at the age when individuals begin to engage in sexual activity.[7][8]
- Highest incidence of genital warts is seen in females aged 20-24 yrs and males aged 25-29 yrs of age[9] (CDC)
- Prevalence of cervical HPV in females may decline after age 30(12571255)
HPV associated cancer
- Incidence is more common in younger age group(sexually active)(18334711)(2196503)(18798277)(22641955)
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis
- Increased incidence is seen in children as compared to adults(18496162)(23013073)
Gender
HPV associated cancers
- Out of total 38,793 HPV-associated cancers that occur in the United States each year, 23,000 occur among women, and about 15,793 among men[3]
- Three fold increased prevalence of HPV associated anal and oropharyngeal cancer in men as compared to women.
- Increased incidence of oropharngeal and anal cancer among men who have sex with men (MSM)[10](22282321 JAMA)(22706220)(24625808)(25291584)
- Worldwide, the point prevalence of HPV in females is 10%, with highest prevalence among african females(17597569)
Race
- There may be increased incidence of high risk HPV infections in black females as compared to white[11][8]
