    Abstract:
    Infection with HPV type 16 was demonstrated in 54% of the cases and infection with HPV type 18 in 36.5% of the cases of uterine cervix carcinoma. Both types of viruses were present in 24.3% of the patients. P53 protein accumulation in cell nuclei was observed in 12.2% of the cases of uterine cervix carcinomas and the cases were mostly HPV negative while the cytoplasmic expression of p53 protein was present in 39% of the cases and was frequently accompanied by HPV infection. Presence of p21 protein was detected in 85.3% of the cases, independently of HPV infection or expression of p53 protein.
