Among HIV-negative men, 9 of 20 High-resolution anoscopy with biopsy was used as the cases of high-grade anal neoplasia would have been standard for detecting high-grade anal neoplasia and was missed because cytology was negative, but the addition compared to detection of high-grade anal neoplasia of human papillomavirus positivity increased sensitivity by anal cytology, human papillomavirus testing, or the for the combination to 90 percent. combination.
