ABSTRACT
Objective. To determine the frequency of infection of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and human papillomavirus (HPV) through the RT-PCR technique in cervical samples from patients treated in a tertiary care hospital in Chiapas.Materials and methods. A descriptive, cross-sectional and prospective study was developed. Through convenience non-probability sampling, a total of 104 samples were collected, 89 of which met the inclusion criteria. A questionnaire with variables of interest was used, an informed consent was obtained. To each patient who accepted, a cervical sample was taken by a gynecologist. The statistical analysis applied was descriptive. dna extraction was by commercial kit, quality was verified by endpoint PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis; the detection of the viruses was by real-time PCR (RT-PCR), using specific assays for each virus with the respective reaction controls.
Results. The mean age was 47.18 (±12.04) years, 48.3% (n = 43) were married, 78% (n = 69) were found to be positive for the presence of viral DNA; the highest frequency was due to HPV with 46.1% (n = 41). HPV coinfection with HCMV and/or EBV was found in 27% (n = 24).
Conclusions. Viral infections play an important role in the genesis of cervical cancer, several studies have found genomic integration of viruses such as: HPV, EBV, among others in the cells of the cervix, causing the triggering of oncogenic processes. Identifying the infection with these viruses provides guidelines for the management and monitoring of the patient with lesions in the cervix.
