Adenovirus infection of the cervix.
A case is recorded in which intranuclear inclusions suggesting adenovirus infection were recognized in a routine Papanicolaou smear. The patient was recalled for virologic studies and adenovirus type 19 was cultured from the cervix. The patient had a recent history of systemic illness with conjunctivitis, and a friend had conjunctivitis at the same time which was also proven to be due to adenovirus of the same serotype. This is the first reported instance in which adenovirus infection of the cervix suspected on cytologic findings has been confirmed by virus culture.

The significance of noncondylomatous wart virus infection of the cervical transformation zone. A review with discussion of two illustrative cases.
The clinicopathologic features are described of two patients whose cervical cytology smears showed features which were thought initially to indicate dysplasia, but which were later considered to be those of condylomata acuminata. One patient was an immunosuppressed renal transplant recipient, the other was a routine gynecologic clinic patient. No condylomas were recognizable clinically, and colposcopy showed only a flat but atypical transformation zone. Biopsy in each case showed a noncondylomatous warty lesion and wart virus particles were demonstrated by electron microscopy. These cases highlight the clinical, colposcopic, cytologic and histologic diagnostic difficulties which are encountered with cervical transformation zone wart virus infections, which are commoner than formerly realized. The possible relationship of wart virus infection to cancer of the cervix is also discussed.
