Abstract 51 Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in Jamaica with an incidence of 17.4/100,000. (1). Cervical cancer is acquired sexually, with the human papilloma virus (HPV) being the most important causative agent (2,3). HPV infection is associated with the development of other cancers such as anogenital, vaginal, vulvar and anal cancers in women, and penile and anal cancers in men.(2) It is also responsible for genital warts and oropharyngeal cancer in both men and women. Two vaccines were approved for the prevention of cervical cancer by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are available in Jamaica (4,5). This study assessed the knowledge and attitudes in a male cohort towards HPV and HPV vaccine. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in which two hundred male students were recruited. Information for this study was gathered from responses given in a self-administered questionnaire. Data was analyzed using the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 20. Results: The mean age of the respondents was 22.6 years. 50.5% stated that they had heard of HPV. Of those who knew of the HPV, only 37.6% vs 39.6% of respondents reported that sexual intercourse was a requirement for HPV transmission, while 22.8% did not know. 43% reported knowing that HPV causes genital warts and 42% knew of an association with cervical cancer. 16.5% of the respondents knew of the HPV vaccine. Only 21.2% knew that the HPV vaccine protects against cervical cancer while the remaining 78.8% either said that it didn't provide protection or did not know. 15.3% knew that the vaccine is approved for both males and females while 84.7% did not know. Conclusion: There was significant knowledge deficit in the awareness of HPV and the HPV vaccine in our male university students.

Abstract Genital warts are one of the most common sexually transmitted infections caused by the human papilloma virus. Persons with genital warts may be infected by several types of human papilloma viruses: various types may have antagonistic or synergistic interactions, causing regression or recurrence of the existing lesions. No specific antiviral therapy is currently available. The treatment includes removal of symptomatic lesions on the skin and mucous surfaces. Apart from classical surgical procedures, local destruction of lesions is performed using various chemical and physical agents, whereas systemic therapy includes administration of agents promoting the immune system. The efficacy of treatment is not identical in all cases, and relapses are still inevitable. Combination therapy is often an alternative to monotherapy, while vaccine has an important role in prevention of genital warts.

Buku Monograf ini diharapkan dapat menjadi referensi tambahan dan khasanah ilmu pengetahuan bagi masyarakat agar dapat menambah wawasan dan pengetahuan tentang kanker servik yang dapat dideteksi secara dini dengan pemeriksaan Iva dan pencegahan dengan Vaksinasi HPV . Depertemen Kesehatan RI memperkirakan bahwa setiap 1 jam seorang wanita Indonesia meninggal akibat kanker serviks dengan tingkat kejadian 100/1000 penduduk / tahun. Penyebab utama (99%) kanker serviks adalah infeksi Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Virus ini terutama ditularkan melalui hubungan seksual Diperkirakan 80% wanita terpapar oleh HPV sepanjang hidupnya. HPV memiliki lebih dari 100 macam tipe, yang dapat menyebabkan kanker serviks sekitar 14 tipe sedangkan tipe-tipe yang lainnya dapat menimbulkan kutil pada daerah genital (genital warts). Tipe yang paling sering menyebabkan kanker serviks adalah HPV tipe 16 dan 18. Pemberian vaksin HPV pada kenyataannya ada yang mau melakukan dan ada yang tidak mau melakukan, bagi yang mau melakukan, dikarenakan mengetahui dan menyadari betapa pentingnya mencegah penyakit kanker serviks.
