If the patient has HPV high-risk type 18 infection is relatively serious, the patient's chances of developing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or cervical cancer are very high. If the patient has no problems with TCT examination, colposcopy and cervical biopsy are also needed to determine whether there are cervical lesions. If there are problems, cervical conization must be performed and further treatment based on conization results. If the patient has HPV high-risk type 18 infection, TCT, colposcopy and cervical biopsy are not problematic, and there are no special clinical symptoms, you can choose to use interferon, Baofukang suppository or thymosin and other drugs for treatment, 3-6 months for HPV and TCT reexamination. If there is persistent infection, even if these tests are not problematic, further cervical conization is required for further diagnosis and treatment.
