Abstract

Recent guidelines from multiple organizations stress screening initiation no earlier than the age of 21 years and increased screening intervals for women aged 21 to 29 years. Primary prevention with human papillomavirus vaccination has the potential to significantly affect the development of high-grade cervical lesions, including dancer, and will likely affect screening guidelines in the future.
