We present two case reports and mention four others with similar clinical, pathological and laboratory findings which suggest that viremia could possibly occur in some human papillomavirus (HPV) infections. Fever, general indisposition or arthralgia associated with micturition difficulties or dysuria appear to be the symptoms accompanying this viremia. After a period of time these symptoms disappear and the infection shows typical HPV uterine cervix symptoms. The diagnosis of HPV infection was confirmed by histological analysis and DNA hybridization of biopsy material from the cervical lesions. These clinical findings may introduce a new avenue for the investigation of viral physiopathology.
