Methods: Prospective, descriptive, transversal. 76 patients were included, adolescents aged between 10 and 19 who had initiated sex with cytologic findings and/or histological cervical pathology, to which sample was taken to determine deoxyribonucleic acid from human papilloma virus by reaction polymerase chain. We practice colposcopy and biopsy was taken, when it was necessary. The risk factors were registration for the medical history. Results: The mean age was 17 ± 1 years, the onset of sexual intercourse was 15 ± 1 years, the number of sexual partners had a median of 2. In 41 patients there was a single viral type (53.9 %), the most frequent was type 6 (43.1 %). The most common cytologic finding was cervical intraepithelial lesion low grade with 52 patients. Flat acetowhite epithelium occurred in 32 patients, 57 cases (75 %) were ectocervical lesions. The most frequent histological diagnosis was intraepithelial neoplasia I (77.6 %). Conclusions: The most frequent viral type was type 6, the alcohol was the risk factor with statistical significance.
