Abstract
The results of a large-scale pilot project on HPV-testing by the Hybrid Capture technology (digene HC2 HPV DNA Test) of 28928 women in the Republic of Bashkortostan were summarized. The frequency of high-risk HPV infection in the studied region of Russia was 10.6%, the average viral load was 319.97 RLU / COV ratio in the total sample, which corresponds to a high viral load (more than 3x107 genomic equivalents). In 5.4% of HPV-positive women, cervical pathology was revealed, cervical cancer in the early stages was detected in 21 (0.69%) women (20 cancer in situ and 1 cancer IA).
