OBJECTIVE: To compare the relation between HPV viral load by hybrid capture II test (HCII) and cytological findings. METHODS: Three hundred sixty-two reagent samples to HPV DNA by HCII had their viral loads classified in four categories and correlated to cytological results. RESULTS: Twenty-two samples (6.1%) were reagent only to low-risk oncogenic types (group A) and 340 (93.9%) were reagent to high-risk oncogenic types (group B). The correlation between viral load for the reagent samples to group A and cytological results showed low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) predominance (50%). Most of this group samples had viral load between 1 to <10RLU/PCA. Of the patients that were reagent to group B 52.1% had LSIL cytology and 38.2% were negative to intraepithelial lesion and malignancy (NILM) cytology. The patients with LSIL had viral load well distributed with a slight predominance of 100 to < 1,000RLU/PCB category. The samples had viral load between 1 to <10RLU/PCB showed NILM cytology predominance (48.1%). High-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (3.4%) were present on the samples with viral load between 100 to <1,000RLU/PCB (p = 0.023). There was a correlation between the median for group B viral load and LSIL/HSIL results. CONCLUSIONS: The quantification of viral load, mainly of high-risk HPV types, may be a useful tool for dealing with patients who have suspicious lesions. OBJETIVO: Comparar a relação entre a carga viral do HPV por captura híbrida II (HCII) e os achados citológicos. METODOS: Trezentas e sessenta e duas amostras reagentes para DNA de HPV por HCII tiveram suas cargas virais classificadas em quatro categorias e correlacionadas aos resultados citológicos. RESULTADOS: Vinte e duas amostras (6,1%) foram reagentes somente para os tipos de baixo risco oncogênico (grupo A) e 340 (93,9%) foram reagentes para os tipos de alto risco oncogênico (grupo B). A correlação entre carga viral das amostras reagentes para o grupo A e resultados citológicos mostrou predominância (50%) de lesão escamosa intraepitelial de baixo grau (LSIL). A maioria das amostras desse grupo teve carga viral entre 1 e < 10RLU/PCA. Nos pacientes reagentes para o grupo B observamos que 52,1% tiveram citologia LSIL e 38,2% tiveram citologia negativa para lesão intraepitelial e malignidade (NILM). Os pacientes com LSIL tiveram a carga viral bem distribuída, com ligeira predominância da categoria de 100 a < 1.000RLU/PCB. As amostras com carga viral entre 1 e < 10RLU/PCB mostraram predominância de citologia NILM (48.1%). Lesões escamosas de alto grau (3,4%) foram presentes nas amostras com carga viral entre 100 e < 1.000RLU/PCB (p = 0,023). Houve correlação entre a mediana da carga viral para o grupo B e os resultados LSIL/HSIL. CONCLUSÕES: A quantificação da carga viral, principalmente para os tipos de HPV de alto risco oncogênico, pode ser uma ferramenta útil para o acompanhamento de pacientes com lesões suspeitas
