Resumen

Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are a group of genetically related organisms that commonly infect stratified squamous epithelium. Unlike many other viruses that infect epithelium and induce lysis of the cells they induce proliferative changes that result in both benign and malignant tumors. The aim of the present paper was to briefly review current understanding of HPV infection in relation to malignancy and also highlight perspectives with regard to the development of an effective vaccine.
