The prevalence of HPV genotypes based on different stages of cervical lesions and age groups was analyzed. The clinical data of 347 HPV-positive inpatients were also retrospectively collected, and difference in the age at first sexual encounter, smoking, pregnancy, and abortion status were compared.Results: A total of 511 patients were infected with HPVs, with an overall positive rate of 15.1% (511/3,393). The most prevalent HPV genotypes were HPV-16 with prevalence rates of 24.9%, HPV-68 with 17.6%, HPV-52 with 16.2%, and HPV-58 with 14.3%. High prevalence of HPV-16 and HPV-68 in inpatients with pre-cancer and cancer lesions was one of the predominant findings. The coverage rates against cervical pre-cancer and cancer lesions for the 2 HPV vaccines, Cervarix was 35.4% and Gardasil 9 was 57%. Smoking and multiple pregnancy were more common in inpatients with HPV-16 and HPV-68 infection than those with other genotypes.Conclusions: Human papilloma virus-16 and HPV-68 are the 2 most prevalent and high-risk HPV genotypes in non-vaccinated women in Zunyi, which may serve as a guide for HPV management in Zunyi, China.
