Koilocytes due to HPV in the urine sediment
ABSTRACT Koilocytes are the hallmark of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and can be observed during routine cytology tests stained by Papanicolaou. However, the test is not part of the routine urinalysis report. Here we describe a case on HPV subtype 6 infection diagnosed after finding koilocytes in fresh and unstained urine sediment of a kidney allograft recipient male patient.
