Extensive cervical lesion and treatment outcomes in women with HIV/HPV co-infection
Cervical lesions inappropriate for ablative therapy were common among WLHIV. This has implications for cervical cancer programs as these lesions can only be optimally treated with surgical therapies such as loop electroexcision procedures, and the capacity for this procedure should be increased to maximise cervical cancer prevention outcomes.
