Follow‐Up and Outcomes After Thermal Ablation Treatment Among HIV‐Infected Women From Resource‐Limited Countries With Positive HPV‐Based Screening: Results of the AIMA‐CC Cohort (ANRS 12375)

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary screening for human papillomavirus (HPV) followed by treatment with thermal ablation (TA) is an important component of the global strategy to eliminate cervical cancer. However, evidence on post‐TA outcomes in women living with HIV (WLWH) remains limited.
