Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the association between risk factors for uterine cervical neoplasms and cervical lesions by HPV by comparison of the visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA), cytology and cervicography results. A prevalence research was made with 157 women in a health center of Fortaleza in the period of June to September 2006. The SPSS program was used to codify the data. Inferences were made through statistical tests (χ2= chi square and LR= likelihood ratio). The VIA, cervicography and cytology obtained 43.3%, 10.19% and 3.2% of altered results. The variables with important association to cervical lesions in the VIA were: aged less than 20 years old (p= 0.0001); one or more partners in the last three months (p= 0.015); use of contraceptives (p = 0.0008); presence of vaginal discharge (p= 0.0001) and moderate or accentuated inflammatory process (p= 0.0001). In the cytology: low instructional level (p= 0.0001) and high pH (p= 0.001). It wasn't found any significant association in the cervicography.
