%X objective: to assess which are the hpv types in both male and female patients attending a private gynecological outpatient clinic. methods: two hundred patients were assessed: 175 women and 25 men who were diagnosed positive with hpv by visual examination, colposcopy, cytology and/or biopsy. cervical cytology reported hpv (with or without cin) in approximately only 40 % of the cases, while biopsy showed this in nearly 80 % of the cases. the typification method used for all the cases was pcr. setting: unidad de ginecologia reproduccion y salud integral. valencia. results: more than 70 % patients were within 15-34 years old. 60 % of the women were nuligravidas and nulliparous. the more frequent colposcopic picture in women was acetowhite epithelium (77 %) while all the cases of men showed warts. detection/typification of hpv was performed by pcr in all cases with negative results in close to 10 % women and 12 % men. fifteen types of hpv were found in women, in which more than half were high risk. in men only 5 different hpv types were found and only around one fourth of these cases were high risk. conclusions: in our series, hpv types 6 and 11 were the low risk hpv in women, which coincides with publications in the literature. in relation to high risk hpvs, the more frequent types were 16, 31 and 33, which doesn£¿t coincide totally with publications. in our series of men, 64 % of low risk were 6 and 11, which is similar to the data published in world literature. this difference between hpv types found in men and women suggests an incomplete understanding of all the factors involved in sexual transmission.
